"i have been with McAfee for 2 years, during the past a year i had 3 VP changes. The new management team are very low EQ that manages base on fear. The senior management rewards yes man and enjoys getting their ego stoked rather then hearing the truth from hardworking employees. Its creates very political and toxic environment to work. The constant strategy shift, reorg and cost cutting will not generate long term profitable growth. its constantly running in fear of its key competitors. with poor management, its hemorrhaging talents to competitors. I think is time for me to join them"

"McAfee is a great environment to work in. The culture is super friendly and everyone is willing to help you when you start working there. The environment is relaxing and chill, and no one bothers you as long as you are doing your work. The pay is also pretty decent. It is a fun place to work at!"

"I worked at McAfee (in Bangalore India) over the summer as an Intern. I collaborated with a team working on one of the most advanced, extensible and scalable centralized security management software called as the ePolicy Orchestrator (or ePO for short) and the main function of the ePO is to ensure the conformance of end points (numbers ranging from 11 to 1000) in an enterprise network and report if a system was not compliant. In such cases, the software had to be installed or updated manually, which was time consuming (as close to 100-150 commands had to written one by one), and hence I was given the task of developing a script (in python) that would fetch machine information, SSH connect to the machine, send the necessary commands (generated dynamically based on the standards prescribed by the OS website) and store the results of the commands for future reference, thereby saving effort of the engineers, time of the team and resources of the company. The script I developed was compatible with Debian, SUSE and RHEL machines, and was “Developer Friendly” i.e. developed to be scalable to ensure other operating systems could be handled in the future with minor modifications. In addition to this, I was assigned the task of updating some pre-existing python automation scripts that lacked certain functionalities. These scripts were also “modernised” by using the recent file formats and libraries replacing the old ones. One good example was updating the script to handle data in JSON format rather than the old XML format. This not only made future development easy but also made the code efficient."
