Netskope

Netskope, for a time, pride itself on how happy its employees were, but like any other company out there, they are quick to lay off workers. They are very bad when it comes to financial integrity within the company. Netskope had its funds in banks that went belly-up, but tried to pretend it was no big deal. At the end, people got laid off due to poor foresight. 

Now Netskope is preparing for buy-out.  Very soon another company will take over, and more layoffs will begin.

Pros: 
You get to work in a cool office surrounded by some exceptionally smart and talented individuals

Cons:
- All managers play politics 
- layoffs constantly happening on a near monthly basis  - management says they are "performance-related"
- yearly salary increase has been put on hold for everyone in the company (not sure if this is true).
- hiring is still going on amidst all of this

Stability has been a challenge in recent months - codebase is too large and code quality issues aren't being addressed properly by QE leadership.
This company has started sinking now, stay away if you can.

Netskope is the biggest company I worked for in last 8 years.
But the development systems and processes are not organized well, even compared to 100-300 ppl start up.
Feel like the whole engineering teams are not working together for the same goal and strategy. Each team is fighting to almost all others for their own goal and strategy. Really hard to make a consensus and everybody claims their own rules, ways.
I hoped I may contribute some to change the culture, but now I am getting tried step by step.

The workplace is really inspiring and transparent. You would find everyone around smart and expert in their work. It is common here to work extra hours when in need. It is a startup culture at its best and I would recommend this company to anyone that is willing to put some extra effort in learning things and working hard.

Netskope deeply values its employees and their career development. Since it is still a startup, there's lots of room to branch out from your current position and learn other skills/work with other orgs. Management cares about employee's wellbeing and, while remote working can keep everyone physically apart, there are plenty of opportunities to bond over Zoom with their bingo events, meditation, and concerts put on by Netskopers. 

The culture is the #1 reason I took the role and it is still the #1 reason as to why I am so happy here. On top of the transparency, forward thinking, striving to be the best for our customers, giving back and having fun, our employees are treated amazing! We are not just a number or a job description to anyone. Who we are as individuals matter. This is has been shown to me from all levels, top down in my year here. Love this place! 

I was an intern getting paid nothing, but I did the work of a normal security analyst. Basically did a bunch of free labor.

I'm sure working as a full-time employee is great, but as an intern I wasn't getting paid anything despite being promised that I was going to be paid.

The environment and tools I got to work with were amazing. Everybody was friendly and always willing to help each other out.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Excellent market-fit - high growth
Good compensation, nice people

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Has become too large. Some very senior managers are too political.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Used to be start-up like, becoming a big org with fiefdoms.

Netskope, so far, has been an exciting endeavor filled with areas of opportunity and compelling challenges. The business is in a great space, very competitive market to be a part of - and with that - you feel very valued for how you impact the business. A very mutually inclusive culture where employees are candid with leaders and feedback leads to results. 

- Lots of opportunity for growth, whether you're looking to move up the ladder, or move to another function
- Culture is very transparent, always has been. The open-door policy our CEO has makes it clear that transparency is important
- Flexible time-off and a work-life balance is important here. Folks take time off as needed. The remote work style makes things flexible
