False advertising meant that I started this position with high hopes for a long career with LogRhythm. I was told there would be no micromanagement, a great work/life balance, and room for career advancement. However, I came to find out that every single activity was closely monitored, asking for even a day off meant intense scrutiny and the so-called "Defined career path" was complete garbage. And once you applied for another position within the company, you went from being treated poorly to being treated with outright contempt by a manager who does not even know the meaning of the term "manage". I was consistently asked how I could be assisted and never given any assistance, because management does not even know what the job entails. There is no defined training schedule and new team members are thrown on the phone within two days of starting; which, of course, does not make for a knowledgeable and well-trained team. 

I, along with several members of my team, went to HR with complaints about management and their behavior towards us several times and nothing was done, which means morale is incredibly low in the SDR department. 

Numerous allegations of impropriety were never addressed by HR. 

However, I have to say that the team is wonderful and everyone truly cares about one another's success, even if management does not.

LogRhythm has many smart and interesting people.  Unfortunately managers have little prior experience and are in over their heads.  Managers and HR retaliate against employees who acknowledge problems or suggest improvements.  Training and advancement opportunities are non-existent.  If you want to do the exact same work, day in and day out, for the rest of your life, this is the place for you.  If you want to learn, grow, and expand your career, look elsewhere.  LogRhythm is hemorrhaging its most talented and experienced employees at an alarming rate, leaving inexperienced and incompetent people in key roles.  Maybe the executive team will put their egos aside long enough to make a course correction?  Otherwise this company is on a road to failure.

Unlimited vacation, special events, even a ton of perks - Yoga, hackathons, Logtoberfest - the list goes on. All of these things make it seem like a great place to work. That is, until you actually start working there. Management holds participation in these events against you, and expect you to work most weekends/nights, or at least that was true in my department. When trying to take advantage of the "unlimited time off" we were told that we had to schedule it a quarter in advance, and that unexpected time off would be counted against us.

HR is not someplace to go for help, they will do little but tell the manager everything you said.

When I first joined, company culture was great and opportunities for growth were promised. After a massive re-org, including a new CEO, many people left, teams were never really settled because of constant shuffling and reshaping. Execs and directors did not communicate with lower level managers, leaving many surprises for developers and mid level managers. There was a lack of togetherness, it felt very much like we had no say in what goes on. I never received a real performance review in 3 years of working there, because manager turnover was high.

the Organization are full of favoritism, there are no such thing as rewarding experiences here 

management try to juice their support to work almost 24/7 and with no compensation or incentive 

oncall structure is horrible  to death. They finally realized they need to hire more people, but with lack of support to their employee, how long can they really last ? 250 dollars per day, but you get 10 sev1 cases just the weekend alone and that pretty much make you a farm labor. 

be very careful to come to the office, management is making it an requirements and  not as advertised  "remote friendly " 

LogRhythm is going through some change after being VC-backed and owned for the first part of its existence but is now PE-backed. While there is some disruption to teams and some voluntary (minor involuntary) turnover, the company is strengthening its position and posturing itself for long term success. There is no doubt that this company will continue to go toe-to-toe with the other big players in the space (IBM, Splunk, Micro Focus, etc.) and emerge as one of the top choices if not the top choice for users and customers.

When I started here the company seemed like it was on the up . After about 8 months the company started to over expand and them started missing goals for revenue. Within the marketing department some really bad decisions were made that cost much more than their ROI. Combine this with missing revenue goals and the company started going down hill. My manger in particular was ineffective and offered no solutions when hitting quotas become difficult because my territory had no new leads coming in. There are many good people here and I'm sure the company will get back on track.

I'm not thrilled.  The beginning was fine.  The middle was good.  The end has been difficult  I'm happy to leave.  I don't want to complain - management has complex.  They don't want to hear the bad - only the good.  You tell them the truth and you are outcast.  Computer engineers find it hard to come out of their shell in the first place and then get slapped when you share your opinion.  It's not an easy place to work.  You definitely do not want to work in support.  The management over there is crazy.  Free lunch Friday is okay when the food doesn't run out.  Yoga is okay.  Breathing classes is weird.

Exabeam is going through a major growth stage. They have a new team of leadership who have been cleaning up roles, responsibilities and processes. There is a lot of work involved but every week I see the new progress and super excited to be part of such a scaling opportunity. I've heard horror stories of RIFs happening again, but I feel secure and stable here as I continue to learn and contribute to safety for all. 

A typical day involves coding and collaborating with team members. I've learned advanced Java techniques and cloud integration. Management is supportive, fostering a collaborative workplace culture. The hardest part is balancing multiple deadlines, while the most enjoyable is successfully deploying a feature after rigorous testing and seeing it perform in production. The environment encourages growth, with ample learning opportunities and a strong team spirit.
