Pros
Anyone that values great leadership should want to be a part of Palo Alto Networks. The leadership of the organization is very much a "do as I do" organization and not a "do as I say" organization. True leadership is about inspiring people to become the best that they can be. This is done by leading by example and making time to connect with your people. This is not a management by spreadsheet organization. This is very much a lead from the front organization. They put the political agendas aside and come together to drive the business.
Cons
There aren't many. I'm challenged every day by working with the best of the best. I don't view this as a negative. I enjoy being challenged on a professional level. The bar is set very high and I'm ok with that. That' s the way that it should be when you hire the best in the business.
Advice to Management
Keep leading by example. Keep making time to connect with your people. Keep Palo Alto Networks an amazing place to work because we have hired the best and will continue to hire the best.
