Pros

- There is a genuine sense of purpose here. The work feels meaningful. - There are lots of resources for learning, upskilling, and internal mobility if you want to try a new role or team.

Cons

- Because the Cybersecurity landscape evolves daily, things move at lightning speed. If you prefer a slow, highly predictable 9-to-5, the pace here might feel intense. However, for those who thrive on innovation, it’s incredibly exciting.

Pros

Good balance of fast growing company with it still being small enough to get things done. People are focused on customers and solving problems and are pragmatic and relatively easy to work with. Good stock and bonus payouts.

Cons

Extremely fast moving - you dont have time to chill here.
