      Ridiculous hard to work with

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Compensation is looks good- on paper. Hire cool places for events

      Cons

      Transparency is very poor between decisions making and success standards. Hire like crazy and fired like crazy. Avery planning in product organisation about when to ship which features Way too many commitments to the customer to achieve something company can not fulfil in time. Therefore it results in high pressure within product and R&D Engineering can not focus on containers one day and SAST like project another day

      Hello, sorry to hear your difficult experience. Last week, with having to face some difficult headcount decisions, has indeed been a tough week for the company and we understand the frustration, but we believe strongly in the long-term success potential at Snyk, and our obligation to manage towards it in a fiscally responsible manner. Also appreciate your concern about a high pressure environment and quickly evolving priorities. This is, unfortunately, sometimes the nature of pivoting to address external pressures in a start-up environment, and we fully appreciate this can be challenging. If you have feedback or suggestions that you would like to share internally, please do feel free to reach out to your leadership or someone in the People team.

      Everything is managed at Snyk opposite to their stated values and promises.

      Incredibly passionate and caring culture

      Anonymous employee
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - One of the warmest and most caring communities of people I've ever come across - Working with the team feels like 'home', the culture Snyk has developed is truly unique and a differentiator - Annual "All Hands" event pulling all employees together globally is a huge win - We get to be ground breaking in an incredibly exciting cyber-security space with amazing potential

      Cons

      - Rate of growth is fast and with that comes a lot of pressure, ambiguity and chaos. Only worth signing up if you're comfortable operating in an environment like that.
