Disappointing End to an Otherwise Solid Journey

Pros

Decent salary and benefits Friendly international teams, great talents It used to be a great place

Cons

The business is in decline, and its products no longer match the level of innovation and market appeal of competitors. There is little to no investment in marketing, making it increasingly difficult to compete effectively in the crowded IT security landscape. Due to sanctions, many systems and tools are blocked and have been substituted with Russian or open-source alternatives that are poorly performing and unstable, leading to inefficiencies and frustrations for employees. The handling by the local HR Business partner and HQ Functions of the recent collective redundancy and closure of the UK office was extremely poor. Communication was inconsistent and often delayed, leaving employees feeling undervalued and in the dark. No clarity was provided on the criteria used to determine why some roles were retained longer while others were immediately terminated, leading to employee frustration and confusion. While the enhanced redundancy package was decent, it still fell below the industry standard for the IT sector, especially for long-tenured employees who dedicated years to the company. Lack of transparency and proactive support for affected employees during this challenging time. Despite years of dedication from staff, the process felt rushed, impersonal, and devoid of proper consideration for their contributions. Minimal effort was made to provide meaningful transition assistance, such as career counselling or networking opportunities.

Hello, thank you so much for your honest feedback. We are sorry to hear that you did not find your experience at Kaspersky to be as positive as you would have liked. However we should mention that while there are always challenges to the business, we have been showing continuous growth in revenue and profitability this past year despite the pandemic. We still have a very talented team and continue to attract and hire highly-talented people. With that said, we are always looking to improve our operation and we appreciate your feedback. If you are interested in discussing further, we are open for a dialogue. Kaspersky Human Resources

Pros

- Great management style especially under Maxim Frolov and Amir Kanaan in the Dubai office - Great place to learn cyber security: Pre-sales team and all the tech were supportive while I was there and learned a lot from them - Competitive compensation and benefits - No useless formalities culture; mostly objective and achievement focused

Cons

- Perhaps more trainings - Channel team was unnecessarily too influential
