Pros

Unbelievably talented people work here. Without question, some of the brightest minds in the industry and in the cyber security risk space. Phenomenal sales leadership with clear direction on where we want to go and how we're going to get there. Above all though, the culture is fantastic. The entrepreneurial spirit is embraced here and the opportunity in this space and in this company is immense...and it's actually fun to come to work. Happy to be a part of the Coalfire team.

Cons

Explosive growth can bring some challenges. That said, they're good problems to have and I commend Coalfire for their commitment to continue to invest in helping solve for those challenges. I've been other places where it was the other side of the coin. Trust me, growing pains pale in comparison.

Pros

- Real client-facing technical work in regulated/FedRAMP environments; good exposure if compliance-heavy cloud is your lane. - Internal mobility exists on paper; managers may encourage internal candidates for promotions. - New management clearly understands their assignment and is saying the right things and taking initial steps that appear to be moving us towards a strong path forward.

Cons

- Promotion paths can be unstable; roles may get restructured mid-process, which makes career planning hard. - Management quality is uneven; promotion into management isn't always tied to demonstrated leadership, technical capability, or appropriate vision. - Limited structured professional development. - Compensation progression can be a friction point, including for internal moves. - Bonus payouts have come in far below target even for top performers, which has been rough.
