      Company in an identity crisis

      Senior cyber security engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      * Good work/life balance in most departments * Can learn a lot working here, as you get to work with a lot of seasoned and educated cyber professionals * There are opportunities to switch up the work you do within the company, to meet your desires * Historically this is a very respectable employer that does a lot of great research * Pretty good benefits

      Cons

      * Management is incredibly preoccupied with being politically correct, and it invades every aspect of work life now. It is very hard to keep one's head down and get real work done for sponsors, because of all the distractions. * Some of the research they are involved in now is in an ethical gray area * Constantly changing guidance and rules from management causes confusion and is discouraging * There is a lot of discrimination against people that might voice opinions that run contrary to management

      Pros

      Benefits, Retirement, Time off, Interesting work

      Cons

      I am sponsor-facing and have been trying to get sponsors to adopt some of our recent work. It’s increasingly difficult when we look like we do not communicate internally and have no long term plan. Example: Last year Mitre published a cyber defense framework called Shield. While it was far from perfect, it aligned with ATT&CK and made sense to sponsors. Then a few months ago, we released D3fend, yet another cyber defense framework, but very theoretical and unapproachable for most sponsors. Now, just weeks ago, yet another cyber defense framework which is geared towards an engaging with cyber adversaries and again a non-starter for most of our sponsors. I hate to even discuss these anymore because I can’t explain the differences and why we released 3 similar things in less than a year! We look clueless! This is just one example of many that show a lack of coordination and communication!
