Pros

Technology: Cyber security is hot right now, Gartner rates them in the Magic Quadrant Benefits: Matching 401K, competitive salaries, company doing well so bonuses are excellent Other: Free snacks, drinks, bagels on Friday, lots of social activities with food served, however no in house cafeteria but lunches are subsidized. Culture : Hard working people, flexible working environment with lots of autonomy (but it depends on area you work in). Work life balance flexibility, feels like a small start company but with reasonable processes and systems in place.

Cons

-Owned by private equity company, no equity offered, starting to lose people to other companies who are. Management needs to do something. -Rumer's of being a potential acquisition target is causing some uncertainty with employees especially those who want to stay in a small company.
