Pros

Cash-rich company. Can offer a good package if negotiated well.

Cons

The senior management is completely incapable of leading an engineering team.

The culture is suffocating. The top lead of the India office is a puppet to the leadership and completely lacks judgment. They simply follow orders, and no one challenges or even tries to get to the bottom of the issue or defends their employees.

During my tenure, I have seen 4 unethical layoffs.

Master-slave relationship between managers and engineers.

No work-life balance, and the senior management supports this behavior.

Worst part: CrowdStrike's product is to stop breaches. However, the company itself is paranoid, and they do not encourage the engineering team for any R&D to experiment. You can only visit authorized sites on the internet. They are afraid that they themselves cannot defend against breaches. What kind of product are they making when the company itself does not have confidence in their product?

I have seen engineers being laid off on weak grounds, and the company will force the employee to resign.

No job security. Better to look for a job in other companies rather than working here.

I wish I could have negative stars.

Advice to Management

Please change your senior management in the Pune, India office. They are ruining the culture.
