Pros
- The people are what makes this company. Collaborative, skilled, and everyone come together to solve issues.
- The company is functional, there is no bureaucratic BS, and it's relatively flat in its structure.
- Management listens and tries to make the company a very open place.
- Good work/life balance. You can set your own schedule that works for you as long as you get your work done and show up for the meetings you're required for.
- There's lots of opportunity for quiet time to focus on a problem. Most work tend to be async and meetings are only really booked when it's truly needed.
- You're not boxed into your expected role at all times. There's opportunity for variety if you want it. If you want to stand on a conference floor talking to people you can, or if you want to join a sales call to understand the customer better, you can.
- The trajectory for the company is very promising. Large contracts landing left and right. Remote access to industrial control systems is an underdeveloped market and there's a lot of opportunity for growth within this sector.
- You get to work on problems that are important. For example, protecting drinking water or electrical grids from cybersecurity attacks. It's very rewarding.
Cons
- Lack of get-togethers and social events during the pandemic. But it's starting up again with team retreats getting scheduled for later in 2022.
- With large contracts landing left and right, there is sometimes difficult to get an idea of prioritization as things move very quickly.
