Legacy Company Sometimes Lost

Pros

Lots of folks with substantial industry and business experience so you are surrounded with folks who can help you develop. RSA is a name recognized in the cyber security industry so your resume has brand recognition. There are some gems of passionate and dedicated professionals throughout all levels of leadership and individuals. Work/life balance is genuinely embraced.

Cons

The flip side of being a legacy business in a cutting edge technology industry is that it makes RSA feel stagnant by comparison. Innovation is something often spoken about at the leadership level, but there is a lack of resources and commitment to grow and develop individual contributors to become leaders and innovators. There have been one or more waves of layoffs a year in they have been steadily moving jobs to India and other global locations. This limits prospects for rising through the ranks for US-based professionals. The company is painfully siloed by product and business units, meaning you may have little to no understanding roles and responsibilities of other groups and individuals. This often presents considerable challenges to planning and executing on projects. The working environment leads to a an uninspiring mindset. "Keep your head down and just go about your job. Don't make waves".

Direction is missing

Pros

Talent pool is great but direction from management is going wrong way. Seeing 1-2 rounds of lay off every year and management is not worried about current products and just behind the buzz words of SaaS and Cloud transformation. Compensation is fine. Not great but no bad too. 401k - 6% , Medical plan is ok too. Life insurance is good and you can get upto 5x of your salary.

Cons

Management and Leadership US teams are being laid off at large and development is moving to offshore offices
