Pros

Egnyte offers competitive compensation and benefits packages. Most of the people are hard working and easy to get along with. You'll find that the culture within the work force is very team oriented and they do their best to overcome obstacles.

Cons

Some of the executives promote and establish an environment that includes aggressive behavior, public humiliation and colorful profanity. You may appreciate their direct approach but often times you feel like you are being bullied. You rarely hear from them unless they feel you've done something wrong and you are never rewarded or acknowledged for your achievements. They tend to not value the employees that keep their business growing so that affects employee morale and implements a high turn-over rate. During meetings, it's not unusual to be cut off mid-sentence and interrupted with thoughts that are felt to be more important than what you are conveying. Because of an overall lack of manners and courtesy for others, the surroundings can be hostile and your job security feels unstable.

Pros

Great benefits and great people to work with. The product itself is a great and superior product.

Cons

No training. No pipeline. No real support for SMB. You are basically a glorified SDR. Any real leads come from events or if you have good install base accounts. Hardly any good inbounds come and and if you do get a good and decent size inbound, they take it away from you to give to a mid-market rep. The juice isn't worth the squeeze. If you don't mind constantly grinding, go for it. Otherwise, I would recommend looking else where.
