Pros

Great technology and some very clever people in parts of the company. Decent benefits, and the stock price seems to be getting stronger again.

Cons

Recent overhaul of management has put a group of people in charge of the company who appear to be out of their depth. They have zero understanding of the security market, and even less clue about working in a fast paced, high growth environment, so the energy has all but disappeared. What was once an inspiring company to work for is now a bit of a yawn.
