In order to promote you have to "stand out." By standing out they mean doing things that are not your core responsibilities. Which means, those that climb in their tracks are not actually good at their tracks. But are just good at avoiding their core responsibilities to do other things If you focus on making the clients happy you will not be rewarded Even if you lose sleep doing so. because that is considered "doing your job" The result is that those who escape the core responsibilities and do things like write extraneous useless document, half baked automatic scripts, keep an extremely detailed record of their timesheet, have email records talking to clients or go out drink with boss will win. all things that do not value add to the client from an engineering stand point. It's not about doing actual good work it's about "showing" you did extraneous (useless) work. As an engineer a secret requirement to promote is to do pre-sales? Imagine that. What if we rated NBA players by how well they played football lol? "In order to promote you to senior you must do senior things" so what that means is, as a junior, you must wait till some newer sucker joins. Dump all the work to him, then go and clock more hours else where and contribute to enshittifying the confluence page, by recording what your juniors did. Tldr if you want to wa yang and mess around. You will be perfect here. Skills don't matter, because the client dont understand what you are doing anyways, and your management cant measure the quality of your work. If your detection rules run 100x faster than its supposed to, because you spent 8 hours trying to hack an efficient way to do it, no one cares. Just half bake it. It's not a cybersecurity company it's a cybersales company The place is bleeding talent, because they keep rewarding people who "show" work rather than do work.

EVP who likes to go around asking if people is married or single. This has infuriated many single ladies.

Very evil company, the CEO is a woman. Totally unprofessional and have strange behaviour, She sold her shares already and act like she is queen everyday thinking she is very pretty. Acts really proud and see us like ants. Weird that the shareholder actually pick this bad person to be the CEO.
