Vantaggi
Was happy to join the company for its innovation and cool EDR product. Company as a whole is enjoying public money through stocks. Investors are happy seeing the money and growth.
Svantaggi
But, quickly I learned that this is a company only for those who can survive the politics. Very rich and strong product heads and old timers unwilling to change and adapt. Some still think this as a startup which can survive the long game. Absolutely no process and completely hierarchical. If the head of the PG says something, that becomes the priority and the roadmap. People do get burned out due to extreme pressure - customer issues, outages and even some meaningless escalations. Some of those acquired companies are full of BS. Those were done just for the hype and stock market push. Remember - many of the companies which are breached cannot say in public that they were using the CRWD products because of legal contracts. Security is like insurance. People can mark you non-compliant for not having it.
