Pros

The product security organization has a very ideal work-life balance. The culture is strong on ownership and trust. There is a good sense of pride and collaboration across teams, with a low level of politics and a high sense of "the project is the boss". Compensation is good for the roles. Merit increases and promotions are mostly transparent, but can vary from manager to manager.

Cons

Leadership direction can be whiplash at some times. Some initiatives feel directionless, while others feel misguided. Leadership does respond to pushback and listens to employees, though it often feels like managing up.

Advice to Management

Have a clear vision for what the organization is striving for and help the employees drive. If there is a shift in direction, make it clear and consistent.
