Business Outlook

Pros

RSA has been a great place of growth and innovation. Lots of opportunity for growth. Excellent work/life balance.

Cons

Uncertainty from day to day gets stressful RSA is going through large changes right now with the purchase of EMC by Michael Dell and even before. RSA has moved from making huge impact on the industry to more of a services company. They have little impact on the day to day of the security industry anymore.

Job is challenging. Don't get bored. Always things to do and take initiatives.

Business Outlook

Pros

Cool products, training, lots of things to learn if interested.

Cons

Almost impossible to progress unless in the favourites list of management. Stupid excuses for not giving raises even if people excel. No guidance and real support to individuals who want to develop. Not even clear differences on what management want from each different level of engineer. Eventually talent leaves as there is no real progression.

RSA 2.0 is not quite there yet

Business Outlook

Pros

I love the people I work with, EMC provides an unbelievable amount of training resources to learn/polish skills, RSA is putting all of its resources into solving (in my mind) the right security problems out there today. I can't talk enough about how good the training is for pre-sales engineers.

Cons

Turnover and inconsistent performance highlight a tough transition to RSA 2.0 that is still in progress. I think we'll get there, but there's more work ahead.
