Pros

Free lunch once a year. Decent dental plan.

Cons

This could get long. Inhale, now exhale. Inhale one more time, now exhale. Let’s start with the elementary factor. This place is like elementary school for adults. Everyone (and I mean everyone) gossip about eachother. It’s gotten to the point where HR sends out a survey asking about trust issues. Let’s just say the results were incredible (catch the sarcasm) If your not a McAffee groupie, say bye bye to career upward mobility. Being “different” is frowned upon. Ideas are curbed and not welcome. Process seems to be important, but process changes every 36 hours. C Level execs believe that they walk on water. It’s weird. I’ve literally heard a VP say they were the Salesforce God, like dude you just ran a report, big deal. Most managers have no clue how to manage their own lives (openly talk about divorce, drunken nights, drug use, etc) there’s a saying, “if your the smartest person in the room, your in the wrong room” well folks, you will always be the smartest person the room at this hen house. If you are interviewing at this company, TAKE A HARD LOOK AT THESE REVIEWS. It’s almost as if there was some sort of directive from management to write positive ones (great benefits, great wages) get a grip, anyone with a IQ of 10 could see through these false postings. Talent at Forescout disappears faster than a fart in a fan factory. If you enjoy some dude in Australia telling you what to do, clicky gossip groups, no career advancement, and colleagues who are on their way out - then by all means, come join this narcissistic, egotistical, big headed company. Chances are you will end up quitting, getting a new job elsewhere, or let go within a month. People here will try to communicate that this company is a start up. Well, this value-less company is 17 years old about to graduate high school. You will be a very sad individual if you join this company, I promise you that.

Pros

Lots of intelligent hardworking people who will drop what they have going on to help you. Excellent culture of coming together to get stuff done. Work life balance is good (you draw boundaries).

Cons

Benefits are ok, nothing stellar.
