      Vantaggi

      The only redeeming part of working at Abnormal used to be the people. Sadly a lot of them were laid off or “managed out” by the leadership with no particular cause or direction.

      Svantaggi

      The lack of direction, basic competency, and absolute decision making chaos is one of the defining features of this company. I have absolutely no confidence in the CEO's ability to define solid direction for this company and then stick to it. This company hasn't shipped anything major in over two years. The lack of execution isn't just on the CEO. You can tell from other reviews here that engineering is being heavily micromanaged by the CTO whose planning and system design skills don't seem to go beyond “what can you hack together in a week”. As the direct result of this, the execution velocity has stalled, there are outages happening almost every single week, and every engineer who is within a vicinity of being on the pager is months into a solid burn out. Career growth: no matter how much they tell you that Abnormal Security is a “career enabler” if you're an engineer you will end up doing one of two things: 1. Hacking together some Django apps hoping you won't have to maintain them 2. Constantly fighting outages and customer escalations That's it. The reward for your hard work is nothing but more work. And good luck doing this for a few years and then trying to interview somewhere else.

      Thanks so much for leaving an honest review—we truly value your feedback. Being in a reactive state is never the ideal. The downturn in the economy has impacted many organizations, including Abnormal. As a result, we’ve made some incredibly difficult decisions in order to consolidate functions for greater efficiency and match our team structure to changing business needs. Moving forward, we are making changes to adjust to the new phase of growth and build for durability so that all employees can feel confident both in the future of Abnormal and in their future with the company. We are also working hard to create a manager enablement program that addresses these issues. We’re committed to creating an environment where our employees can thrive, and we know that can’t happen without effective, well-trained managers to guide them. We’re sorry we didn’t get it right by you.

      Vantaggi

      - High level of ownership: the eng team runs pretty lean considering the size and scale of the company, which means that there is never a lack of scope for you to own. I don't think my teams have ever worked on something that wasn't impactful and meaningful for the company. - Strong teammates: a side effect of high ownership is the hiring of strong individuals who feel a strong sense of pride in their craft and what they work on. What you get is a group of driven and sharp engineers - Leadership visibility = more opportunities for growth: the company places a strong focus on rewarding high performers with more opportunities for growth. Regular internal talent reviews mean that we're always asking how we can put strong engineers in positions to continue growing and building their skills to succeed in their role - AI enablement: Abnormal is investing heavily in its employees and how we can use AI more. It's not just a "use more AI mandate", but rather intentional ways to enable the team and deliver tangible impact through AI usage.

      Svantaggi

      - Running lean can be a double-edged sword: sometimes that can mean more work that needs to be done than the bandwidth available to do it. Creates difficult prioritization exercises and careful tradeoff considerations - Slow payment of tech debt: one of the side effects of moving quickly (especially in the earlier years of the company) is the accumulation of tech debt. I think teams are given a good amount of leeway to help pay this down, but sometimes falls in the priority ladder when we need to build something new to match a competitor
