Hands down, the best place I have ever worked

Pros

Surrounded by motivated, intelligent people from diverse backgrounds that makes the day-to-day fun. Amazing culture with focus on work/life balance that is actually as close to a balance as it can get. A place where your voice is actually heard and acted on.

Cons

Rapid growth can cause many changes to departmental leadership so communication at times can get hung up.

Pros

A bunch of unnecessary free gifts, free LaCroix, you can also tell people you work at Duo.

Cons

I worked in the ISS department and the management is a joke. Managers would make inappropriate sexual jokes, mock religious beliefs, not show up to meetings, and give unreasonable deadlines. Like being told on Friday afternoon something needed to be done by Monday. There is no training or job-specific onboarding at all. I was given a google doc and was essentially on my own. Unless you wanted to drink and play ping pong in the basement all day you got short shafted. Your best bet for promotion in this place is to be a "bro". Yet other teams like the poor folks doing Salesforce have to work mandatory overtime and have been doing that for the better part of a year due to yet again the failings of management. I'm not talking 5 or 10 hours either, 20 plus. (I heard that exact number from 3 of the developers I was friends with on that team).

Duo Security Response

As the leader of the ISS department, I am personally disappointed to read this but appreciate the candid feedback and am committed to learning more as your description does not reflect our expectations of how we conduct ourselves at Duo. Period. More specifically, some of your comments regarding your experience with managers on the team are things that I am hearing for the first time and would welcome learning more about. While you are no longer with the organization, I would appreciate the opportunity to connect with you directly, and can assure you this will be taken forward with our department leadership team.
