Pros

The company as a whole is doing some pretty amazing work, and a majority of the employees are incredibly kind. For the most part, it's a great open work environment with fairly competitive salaries and benefits.

Cons

Egos cloud the thinking of a majority of the leadership within the company. While on one hand Venafi leadership gives off the impression they want an open dialogue with the employees, they only really mean so as long as your opinions are strictly in line with their own. Leadership is obsessed with buzzwords like; corporate culture, team members, affirmations, and other really cheesy crap that neither inspires people or productivity. For a lot of people at Venafi, there is very little work/life balance. While I was employed there management had no qualms calling on a Sunday evening.

Thank you for the input. It is great to hear every point of view. We are far from perfect. For context, we invest a huge amount of resource (time and money) into team member training which includes skills and leadership training. I am sorry if someone finds it cheesey. Not the intention at all. We are going to dive in deep and see what needs to be changed to continue to get better. I also want to point out that we take diversity very seriously. As far as I know we are the only cyber security company with 4 women VPs out of 10 execs on the exec leadership team. And that is because they are the best at their jobs, not because they are women. thanks - Jeff Hudson
