Pluspunten

- Compensation is pretty good. - I learned a lot just by having smart people around me. - Catering. - Work/life balance.

Minpunten

- HR solicited all these glowing employee reviews - so when something seems to good to be true, it usually is too good to be true. - Clique-ish culture - Lots of Ex-Sophos folks that keeps hiring their friends. Members of the clique include managers and protect each other. If you screw up and you're a part of the clique, don't worry, your manager will do his best to make sure that nobody else knows. If you screw up but you're not part of the clique, be ready for public shaming. - Quite a bit of technical debt. - Plenty of middle management that seem to collect a paycheck for not really producing much.

Pluspunten

Unique security solution that is easy to implement and rollout. OpenDNS uses big data analytic's from seeing 3-4% of the worlds internet traffic through its 20+ worldwide DNS DC's. It takes this information and is able to predict where threats on the web are: malware, phishing threats, etc.

Minpunten

CEO is the founder. He was a kid when he started and still is today - young, immature and green. A good hacker but a poor leader. It's key for him to hire the right C levels to execute the vision and strategy. Place has turned into a grind shop - high pressure, micro-managing, high expectations - little reward little recognition... very unbalanced. Company is slow moving - been around for 9 years and is trying to penetrate the Enterprise security market from being a consumer content filtering solution. It's key for him to hire the right C levels to execute the vision - end of the day David U is just a hacker not a leader. Place is turning into a grind factory. High expectations, high pressure from management - low compensation, low reward. Very unbalanced.
