... been given. They are not caring about you. Know the gap that will be on resume. They will give you very small package and very bad culture. The top management specially Syam Nair person which has joined Zscaler is very unprofessional and have a little knowledge about the cloud security and he wants QA to remove. Don’t join this company, whether you are developer or QA. They do the silent firing frequently.
