Pros

I can't think of a single pro

Cons

The miserable senior management team that takes zero responsibility. A truly awful group who appear to be completely blind to how their behavior affects people's feelings. Or they just don't care. The arrogance is incredible. They act like they are the only company in the sector that matters. Bad mouthing competitors happens all the time. You are given no opportunity to succeed in your role, you get gaslit, and then you get pulled up for their failings. Crying at the end of a days work is usual now. And raising this with management and HR leads to no action whatsoever. They do care about Glassdoor reviews, however. You can probably spot which ones on here are written by HR and senior management.... Staff turnover is so high, as people realise that not every company is run in such a nasty way.

Pros

Thorough, hands on training sessions that ensure the employee is prepared. Management invests greatly in their reps/associates, and want to see them succeed. Company culture is also a plus. They care for each individual a lot, are extremely empathetic to personal situations, and understand that work is not the end all be all of life. Also - you will find a wide variety of people working for DragonFly. Many of my colleagues came from very different socioeconomic, racial, and geographical backgrounds than myself. To make those connections was invaluable.

Cons

No cons - but it would be helpful to have a passion for geopolitics or security.

Pros

You will learn a lot about the different types of security risks that impact businesses. You will probably also build out your knowledge of different global regions. Your writing will probably improve dramatically. The analyst team is extremely talented and (mostly) friendly. These are above-average young professionals functioning admirably in a below-average workplace.

Cons

This is a content factory. They produce a lot of material with a relatively small team of analysts. Unfortunately the demands placed upon analysts are unrealistic. Expect to be overworked. Expect to be criticised for not meeting targets that are unattainable without sacrificing quality. Managers are overworked and often fail to review your work in a timely manner. Of course they deflect blame by going after the analyst. Bullying also occurs here. Don't let the polished exterior fool you. People will say extremely rude things and later behave as if nothing happened. Expect managers to ignore the bad actors or come up with mediocre solutions to keep the content factory running.
