GuidePoint Security

I'm not sure why people are having such issues with GuidePoint. I have been part of the company for approximately two years and have really enjoyed my stay. Having a simple conversation with my leadership has allowed me to expand my knowledge base from technical to business development and even sales. I have been able to get experience in multiple roles, talk with everyone in my chain of command. I have the cell phone number of everyone in my chain, from engineer, up to SVP. I don't have my Partner's phone number because I have never needed to take an issue that high. The partner in charge of my region is well informed and fun to hang out with. CKO is a great time to meet anyone in the company. I have had drinks with over half of the people in my region (again only been here 2 years). CKO is a company wide conference that offers great opportunities to socialize and get your name out there. If you leave GPS and don't walk away with good friends still in the company, it is your own fault. I agree that GPS could do better with formal education benefits, but they fully support and push vendor certification training. 

The Company is growing and with that includes change.  The one thing that hasn't changed is the key people who are working so many hours they are getting burnt out.  As we grow, I think there's a mix of those who were not on board during early days that do not have the work as many hours necessary to get the job done mentality and those who've been there for three or more years who do not know what it means to work less than 60 hours a week.  Partners seem to drive this "be available at all costs" mentality.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Nothing, good old boy network.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Looking over your shoulder and no performance management process.  Kings rule

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
If you are in the in crowd your included, otherwise good luck.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
24 x 7, no time for time off unless in the right roles.

Great people, good work.  High volume of customers being added.  The teams work well together, sharing data and insuring issues are adequately resolved.  Use of Zoom and Google calendar help coordinate activities.

GuidePoint knows how to hire great people.   It's a fast pace environment.  They encourage you to take ownership, collaborate and have fun in the process.

I tried a dual role AE/SE for the first 4 months and it was overwhelming time wise so fell back to just AE where I determined that I'd rather be an SE full time so left GuidePoint.

The benefit of working from home is certainly attractive working with the company. The staff is laid back and friendly. Working for a managed security service provider is a benefit for allowing diversity.

GuidePoint Security is a productive, innovative, balanced workplace that care and reward their employees on a monthly basis for service of excellence overall.

I feel valued and appreciated for my contributions. Good work-life balance. Fun and friendly coworkers. Great pay and benefits. Very happy to be a part of this organization.

Good work/life balance unlimited PTO within reason. Primarily remote. Technology allowance monthly, and a yearly trip when the entire company gathers to discuss goals an plans for the future.
