Pros

Free drinks, snacks and nice sales team

Cons

Upper management (HR and the elitist of Crowdstrike) at this company lacks professionalism and competence, leading to a work environment where they alienate you and make you feel undervalued and unsupported. Despite claims of being a close-knit "family," transparency is lacking, and hidden agendas related to race and culture often result in employees being thrown under the bus. The company prioritizes its external reputation over internal harmony, fostering a competitive atmosphere that neglects employee well-being. Future employees should be aware that the company's industry standing doesn't necessarily reflect its internal culture, which can feel impersonal and unsympathetic. Kinda reminds me of that movie "The Shawshank Redemption," the main character, Andy Dufresne, is treated harshly and coldly by the corrupt prison system despite his innocence.....yikes imagine becoming the very thing you're meant to protect against - Criminals.

Pros

Remote work culture Is excellent, innovative tech, company's growth and opportunities to protect clients. Felt fortunate to have worked for this organization that has a strong growth tragectoruy and protects clients.

Cons

Manager/Director level: Poor communication from team manager/director, with little to no direction and the lack of team morale. Team members were on their own after training and most meetings could've been an email. The presence of the director was the equivalent of a virtual bulletin board. No ownership was taken from management to lead or guide the team and no sense of loyalty exists between management and team members. Good talent was squandered due to complacency and lack of direction. Company: Con for the company is the unfortunate lay offs that happened after leaving the company. It's a shame they laid off veterans from my former team. The writing on the wall was apparent, from outsourced new hires to the non-competitive compensation for newer hires. The company went from a fun and competitive start up to a disconnected company trying to emulate tech industry trends and "balances the budget" AKA lay offs, to look good to share holders. For a company that nets huge profits year after year, layoffs shouldn't be part of the reality.
