Pros

Remote work Hoodie was decent, but branded with the logo, now reserved for painting or car oil changes.

Cons

Thinking of working here? My advice: pour yourself a strong drink, read every Glassdoor review twice, and then ask if you are ready for the corporate equivalent of a pub quiz where the answers change halfway through. Some call it a car crash. I’d say it is more like a rush hour tailback, with plenty of honking, little movement, and everyone convinced they are in the fast lane while going nowhere. Others call it a sinking ship but that feels too generous, perhaps a rubber dinghy having been excessively over-inflated but now letting out a constant wheeze from a puncture, while leadership insists it will “revolutionise the seas.” Employees are called a “Tribe,” but it feels more like Lord of the Flies. Those holding the conch dominate, fresh ideas vanish, and every January brings the “strategic realignment,” otherwise known as the annual cull. Most get six to twelve months to learn how to swim among unhelpful sharks before being cut adrift, while a handful survive year after year, loyal to the last, enduring the Hunger Games and scavenging on what is left behind. Support is best described as an interpretive dance, interesting to watch but impossible to follow. Leadership style: Imagine a giant motivational poster that simply says ¯\(ツ)/¯ Silence is treated as strategy, neglect dressed as empowerment, until you point it out and then suddenly you are on the fast track to the exit. In short, if you enjoy chaos dressed as culture, mystery management as leadership, and the thrill of wondering whether you will make it to next year’s round of redundancies, this may be the adventure for you. Everyone else might want to keep scrolling.

Pros

-Leadership listens, they care, they want you to not only be successful but happy -The off sites are excellent- we have a remote first culture with 2 company gatherings per year that everyone looks forward too. -Trust and transparent environment -Product is really starting to get there- we are winning some logos and learning when we don't

Cons

-Because we are in a fast environment- things change and you might not even be aware -All the normal growing pains of a start up (goals, KPIs, quota, territories, process) we are constantly iterating-that can be tough for people

Pros

Remote, but no additional Pros.

Cons

My recommendation to anyone looking into a job at Cybsafe is simple, "look elsewhere." This place is a sinking ship, having missed sales targets quarter over quarter for years. Leadership is a bad combination of clueless, closed minded, and stuck in their old ways. Rather than innovate, they spew the same old story while the competition is running laps around Cybsafe, both in product development and market fit, making this nearly impossible to sell. The lack of pipeline and closed revenue proves this to be true. Multiple rounds of unexpected layoffs, changes in management, and lack of support, all while being micromanaged, makes Cybsafe extremely stressful to work for. Although there are some good people at the IC role, the sales leaders are as toxic as they get. Very disappointing.
