Sinking ship - Anonymous employee Synack Employee Review

Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback. We value receiving feedback and would like to clarify a couple of points made. Regarding investment in team members and compensation, we are currently investing in roles across the company which positions us for continued growth (see our careers page for a list of our current openings). We have an annual merit budget that has been in place, providing merit and promotional opportunities annually for eligible team members. We believe in allowing our employees to take time away from work to recharge. In the US, we have an open PTO plan for eligible employees and encourage employees to take time away from work. Managers do their best to respect these PTO days. Being a lean organization, we acknowledge there could be a situation where a team member may be asked to help on a PTO day however we don’t believe this is a common practice. In terms of leadership, our leadership team includes individuals with many years of cyber and tech experience. As a company we believe in a culture of accessibility, openness and transparency among our teams. We want leaders who are willing to challenge their team members and are able to have honest and candid conversations with each other and their teams. With that said, respect and trust is the foundation of any good company culture and we are disappointed to hear about any cases where any leaders here acted in an unprofessional or disrespectful manner. We believe in continuous improvement and will work with our leaders to be better moving forward. We are always open for feedback and appreciate hearing from our employees and former employees. Feel free to reach out to the Synack People Team if you want to share more direct feedback.
