Pros

Obsidian has continuously evolved and delivered value to its customers from its legacy in SSPM to now SaaS and AI security. Some of the world's most complex and technologically-matured companies have chosen Obsidian to help them secure their SaaS and now AI deployments. Hasan, the CEO has had a tough job transforming this company and making it relevant and profitable. When you have a daunting challenge of turning a company around, doubling down on revenue year-over-year and making yourself extremely relevant to your customer base, you have to make tough decisions which means you will not be always likable. Hasan has the company's best interest at heart and his customer-obsession translates into the company's culture and how we build and sell security solutions to world's biggest banks, telecom providers, manufacturing and social media giants. Good place if you are driven by outcomes and want to move fast to deliver value.

Cons

With any startup that is now growing into a bigger company, a certain level of planning and process becomes critical to success and this needs to be prioritized.

Pros

I've carried a bag at a lot of companies. Nothing comes close to what's been built here — and it starts with leadership that actually gets it. Our CRO, Brian Murphy, is the real deal. He leads with clarity, conviction, and a genuine respect for the people on the front lines. Brian doesn't just set targets and disappear — he's in the trenches with you, removing blockers, elevating the team, and making sure every rep has what they need to win. You feel supported from the top down in a way that's incredibly rare in sales organizations. The culture he's built is one where accountability and trust go hand in hand. On the go-to-market side, Alison Tierney's Global GTM Strategy is truly best-in-class. The alignment between sales, marketing, and the broader business is something I've never experienced anywhere else. Alison brings a level of strategic rigor and cross-functional coordination that means we're not just selling — we're winning the right deals, in the right markets, with the right message. It makes a massive difference when you're out there talking to customers. The impact you can make here as a sales professional is unmatched. Real deals, real revenue, and work that visibly moves the company forward. If you're serious about your sales career and want to be part of something special, this is the place.

Cons

None that I can think of
