Great culture, little room for advancement

Pros

The culture at Duo is great, some of the nicest people I've ever known. We get to work on really cool things and I've been given a great deal of autonomy to pursue projects I'm interested in.

Cons

Duo has some issues with managers both giving and receiving preferential treatment with regards to pay and promotions. If you're not best friends with your manager it can be much more difficult to move up or to get raises. People on my team have left due to the pay and advancement disparity between members of the department. In addition to all of this, pay as a whole is subpar for the industry

Duo Security Response

Pros

Work is very interesting and engineering culture is strong. People are amazingly talented and kind. Management understands long-term thinking and is transparent.

Cons

Open office plan tends to be distracting. Integrating with a larger organization (Cisco) still leaves some to be desired. More "internal marketing" is now required.

Duo Security Response

Thank you for your feedback, it’s appreciated. One of our very favorite parts of Duo is also the amazing people!
