Pros

It's an excellent market to sell into; however very competitive, and competition is catching up. Base pay is excellent & benefits are decent.

Cons

- Micromanagers - Slack usage from hell - No Work-life balance - Quotas are too high - Gaps in operation and systems, ego getting in the way to make changes - Anxiety and Stress to the roof, but no one at Snyk cares or sees if you're doing okay - No interest in honest feedback or where you want to go in your career

They're a non-public, start-up company, they had layoffs which is always scary.

Pros

Fully remote, flexible, and monthly stipends. Good pay.

Cons

Shady leadership. Tendency to hire employees for a specific reason only to dissolve their position once whatever project they forecasted for the employee is complete. I’ve seen it happen to multiple employees during my employment until it finally happened to me after a few years. Was advised by a former employee in leadership that I would more than likely be overloaded with work and worked out the door in some way because that was their trend. I didn’t believe it but it started happening to many people around me. I don’t trust these people and managers are very loose lipped, move sloppily, and doesn’t know how to not let secrets slip out. I knew my position was being dissolved from meetings I saw on my managers calendar. Luckily I started applying for jobs because I saw the writing on the walls. I had something else lined up but was still a bit blindsided because I was clearly communicating need for help to my leadership. Multiple interviews asking how I was doing and what I needed help with only for 3 days later to be told my position was no longer needed.
