San Mateo, CA · founded 2016
Verkada is a fast-growing physical-security company with an intense, in-person, sales-heavy culture spread across roughly 20 offices. Engineers cite fast progression and strong exit opportunities; the sales floor is polarizing, a 'meritocracy that celebrates success' to some and a 'boys club' to others, and work-life balance is the lowest-rated category (~3.2). The company also carries a real reputational scar: in 2021 senior executives were caught sending sexually inappropriate messages about a female colleague, which drew wide press and still shapes how people, especially women, read its culture. It rates ~3.7/5 overall, with reviewers bluntly saying 'if you want a nine-to-five, don't work here.'
