Pros

If you survive here, you'll know that you're already fundamentally broken. Good luck trying to leave if that's the case.

Cons

If you are a seasoned developer, you will be gaslit into believing that you are incompetent for not abiding by hacky workaround processes and protocols that do not make sense for production environment code, such as uploading a diff to google drive. If you are a critical thinker and are able to see the madness you are forced to code in many instances, do not fight against the status quo. None of these practices are sustainable for the long term. If you mention it, you will be guaranteed to be terminated. It does not matter how good you are as a developer. You will eventually be forced out one way or another. So many instances of internal sabotage, including but not limited to: hijacking of developer systems and services, denial of service attacks, mobbing/people manipulation, and biological warfare. There is no law, rule, rhyme or reason at this place. Everything is fair game. Run from this place like it's the proverbial and literal plague.

Pros

I'm currently working at Anomali and have been impressed by the company’s strong focus on AI-driven innovation in cybersecurity, which makes it feel like you’re working on technology that’s genuinely shaping the future of security operations. There’s a strong sense of building something differentiated in the market, especially with the move toward agentic AI.

Cons

The pace can be fast, which comes with the territory of pushing innovation, but it’s also what makes the work engaging and rewarding. You’re constantly learning and adapting as the technology evolves.

Pros

A paycheck. You will get to know good people who are your colleagues through co-misery. The Anomali employee recovery groups are going strong.

Cons

The CEO claims to be a servant leader. He is far from a servant leader. On a scale from 1 to 10, 1 being Not At All A Servant Leader and 10 being A Real Servant Leader, the CEO at Anomali would rank a 1. He does not listen to people with real expertise and puts his advisors on many projects. They end up undermining Anomali leaders and people. Employees are afraid of the CEO because if they speak up and speak logic and facts, they will be ousted. He doesn't get the truth about the business, because it appears he doesn't want it. It's a mystery to many leaders who have come and gone. The CFO runs the business on a shoebox-under-the-bed budget. Growth is not a thing at Anomali, on any level.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that your experience at Anomali felt challenging. While we recognize that strong leadership and accountability can feel demanding at times, Anomali does not operate as a fear-based or retaliatory organization. Open dialogue, constructive challenge, and respect for expertise are core to how we work. As with any organization, individual experiences can vary, particularly during periods of change. While we may not agree with all characterizations shared here, we value feedback and use it as input as we continue to focus on building a strong and effective organization.
