STAY AWAY! - Sales Opal Security Employee Review

Highly competent and technical team. Engineering hires a lot of new grads, and also strong leadership at the EM and CTO layer. GTM has a lot of relevant industry experience. Come learn from the best!

Industry is highly competitive, as a lot of identity security vendors have converged on the AI agents problem. Opal still has the best logos, but other vendors also now have significant momentum.

Everyone on board is extremely dedicated to building a great product and company. The product iterates quickly with new, highly valued features consistently being released. It is a great, fast-paced environment to learn as an engineer. People will care enough to give quality mentorship. Being on a smaller team means plenty of opportunity to make impact on the product. No regrets joining this team.

The company definitely experiences the expected growing pains of a fast-paced startup. It is a lean team across the board. People come and go, which can feel jarring to smaller teams. Leadership really cares about bringing the right people onboard so hiring feels slower.
