Great workplace for starting Cyber Enthusiasts! - werkgeversreview Cyber Defense Analyst bij CyberOne

I’m giving this a full five stars because, day to day, I feel genuinely valued here. Recognition is regular, often quick shout-outs that are timely and motivating, and when it matters, managers follow up with more detailed feedback. There’s a true feedback culture: managers listen and actually act, so feedback turn into improvements. Growth isn’t a buzzword either; I get stretch assignments with the right support, even when I’m new to an area. The trust and autonomy are real, leadership backs smart risks and lets me own outcomes. Teams are collaborative and low-ego, and people jump in to help without being asked. My work–life balance is the best I’ve had, with far less stress than at previous companies. The business goals are clear, and I can see exactly how my work contributes, which is motivating. I’m encouraged to expand my skills and take on impactful projects, and the culture is inclusive, I genuinely feel I belong. Wins are celebrated, and my contributions to the company’s credentials and growth are recognised. Leadership is transparent, shares regular updates, and genuinely pursues continuous improvement. Overall, it’s the most supportive and empowering place I’ve worked.

If I had to mention a con, it would be that with the company growing quickly, priorities can shift and processes are still catching up but honestly, it feels more like part of the excitement of being in a fast-moving, collaborative environment than a real downside.

Pleasant communication: You often hear encouraging and positive words. Employee support: Travel and accommodation needs are covered whenever required.

Hire and Fire culture: Employment feels unstable, with little long-term security. Unrelenting pressure: Employees face constant stress with little relief or support. Inexperienced leadership: Management lacks the depth of true experience, resulting in poor decision-making and ineffective guidance. Lack of major projects: No significant revenue-generating initiatives to drive growth. Mass layoffs: Nearly 95% of employees have been let go over the past 3–4 years. Broken promises: Customers often face false commitments, damaging trust and credibility of the individual accountable for delivery.
