Pros

Pay has been OK as of late While most of the original SOC team is now gone, they were an awesome group of professionals.

Cons

LEADERSHIP! The company was bought out by private equity about 2 years ago, ever since top leadership has been absolutely terrible. There is no real leadership, people are fired every month just to have new people hired in their place to be fired next month. Leadership changes their mind on direction of the company every 3 months and destroys everything in the process. Anyone who hasn't been fired has either left or is looking to leave. The tools and all infrastructure are a complete mess as everyone who knew how to maintain them are gone and by the time anyone new learns that tool they are fired.

New Management Ruins Company Culture

Pros

I've worked here for several years and undergone several management changes. All feedback has been shared with management & HR previously and appears to have since gone into the void. General advice, run. - Previously a great place to work with an incredible culture. - Remote positions - Wonderful team members

Cons

- The excitement of coming to work has vanished since the most recent changes in management. - Unfair PTO policy changes due to high turnover. - Too busy for an opportunity to take any PTO, let alone a break to drink a glass of water - Promised promotions forgotten; L1s moved to hourly for extra shift coverage instead of hiring new employees. - Low pay for U.S employees - Workday extended by 30 minutes as new management considers lunch breaks during the already 10 hour workday to be "taking advantage” of the company. - SOC schedule created without team input, leaving us understaffed during peak times. - External hires favored over internal promotions; poor communication about open positions. - Crucial analysts fired and replaced by inexperienced leaders who do not assist general workflow in any way, shape, or form. - No time for training due to workload/schedule structure - Toxic culture that rejects constructive feedback. They only want to hear positive feedback, anything less will be ignored. - Management speaks negatively about team members from specific regions. - Management blames continued issues on previous employees rather than taking accountability. - Clients are misled about monitoring; there are significant unmonitored periods. - Barely functioning portal that makes an already impossible workday even harder. - Extremely overworked teams with no light at the end of the tunnel or path to promotion. - The company reeks of nepotism. - Continuous mergers

Pros

Working at CyberMaxx has been an incredibly rewarding experience. From day one, I was welcomed into a culture that emphasizes innovation, collaboration, and professional growth. The company’s commitment to excellence is evident in every aspect of its operations, making it a great place to work and be a part of the team.

Cons

CyberMaxx: A Deteriorating Workplace Under Leadership My experience at CyberMaxx took a dramatic turn for the worse after Brian Ahern assumed the role of CEO. What was once a vibrant, collaborative, and innovative workplace quickly deteriorated under his leadership. The promises made about maintaining and nurturing the company culture turned out to be nothing but empty words, leading to widespread dissatisfaction and instability within the workforce. Destruction of Company Culture One of the most disheartening changes has been the destruction of the company culture. Before Brian Ahern’s tenure, CyberMaxx was known for its supportive and collaborative environment. However, his actions have systematically dismantled this culture. Key employees with significant tribal knowledge and insights into the company's operations were unceremoniously fired, leaving a void yet to be filled. This loss of experienced staff has not only disrupted daily operations but also eroded the sense of community and continuity that once defined CyberMaxx. Inexperienced Leadership The new leadership’s inability to effectively manage and understand the complexities of the business has created a chaotic work environment, further exacerbating the issues stemming from the loss of experienced employees. High Employee Turnover The workforce at CyberMaxx has become a revolving door. The instability and uncertainty caused by frequent firings and resignations have created a toxic atmosphere where employees are constantly on edge, unsure of their job security. This high turnover rate is a clear indicator of the declining employee morale and dissatisfaction under the current leadership. Broken Promises Brian Ahern’s promises to prioritize and maintain the company culture have proven to be blatant lies. His actions have consistently contradicted his statements, and it is evident that his primary focus is not on the well-being of the employees or the preservation of the company's values. Instead, these promises seem to be part of a larger effort to mislead board members and stakeholders about the true state of the company. Conclusion In conclusion, Brian Ahern's leadership has been detrimental to CyberMaxx. The once-thriving company culture has been destroyed, experienced employees have been let go, and the new executive team lacks the necessary experience to lead effectively. The resulting high turnover and broken promises have created an unstable and untrustworthy work environment. I can no longer recommend CyberMaxx as a great place to work, and I hope the company can find a way to address these issues before it’s too late.
