Pros

- Great technology - Growing market segment

Cons

- Company cares about KPI but not for the business or customers. Even if you close a MM deal, they care about KPI, not the deal or the customer - They don't care for experience, nor want to hear other opinions that are not cheerful - They put managers with no experience on the market or the position, since all the work is to fill the KPI

Pros

Zscaler’s bread and butter products are great. Excellent pay and benefits. Fast growing technology

Cons

Toxic Mid Level Management looking out for themselves. Employees are easily expendable. Company seems fixated on stock prices and losing its focus on making happy customers. Diabolical review practices. My whole team received reviews from our manager. The SVP of the group then lowered everyone’s rating down a full level without any feedback or reason. The same SVP then laid us all off a few months later.
