Pluspunten
I’m sad to say most of the things I would’ve listed as pros are unfortunately no longer true so I don’t much to add here: - Can be a good way to get into the cybersecurity industry if you have little to no experience. You can get a significantly higher-paying job after only 10-12 months. - The vast majority of employees across all teams are in their 20s so internal team meetings are pretty casual - Health insurance is “paid for” (disclaimer: the actual coverage is not competitive so only a pro if you never plan on using it or are young enough to stay on your parent’s insurance)
Minpunten
- For starters, check out what people say about Darktrace on Reddit or try googling “Darktrace” followed by “JPMorgan” or “gimmick” - CTs would be called sales engineers just about anywhere else but they only start us out at about $75K and we made NO COMMISSION even though we play such a huge role in demonstrating value during trials. - From what I’d attribute to inadequate training and lack of oversight for new AEs, we saw more and more of them coming in and treating us (CTs and CEs) like pawns in “their” deal rather than actual team members. Not all AEs are disrespectful but when so many of the good ones have already left, CTs are stuck spending so much of the day *dealing* with AEs which inevitably outweighs just about anything we enjoyed about the job in the first place. - Raises/bonuses are scarce, distributed unfairly, and further highlight how management picks favorites rather than rewarding true top performers. We are not evaluated on a yearly basis for raises or even considered for raises to offset increases in the cost of living. - 401K matching is a joke at only 1%
