Stay Far, Far Away. - Channel Account Manager Check Point Software Technologies Employee Review

Pros

They've got a massive installation base that generates big annual renewals and a substantial partner base. Local/regional/US sales teams, channel teams and management are decent...it's too bad Tel Aviv won't give them any decision making ability.

Cons

Stay away. Bad executive management, impossible comp plans. Sales, channel, marketing and the partners themselves are truly considered barely a tolerable expense since the product is so good it sells itself . You'll be paid (or not paid) as such if you join this place. An inordinate amount of decision making ability stays exclusively at HQ in Tel Aviv. I am not writing this review to give this organization a bad name, I simply feel compelled to warn potential candidates who might be interested in joining of the awful culture that this place has, all driven by executive management in Tel Aviv. You've been warned.

Pros

The core responsibilities offer solid experience, and many team members are dedicated, talented, and great to work with.

Cons

Lack of HR Support: The company lacks a safe, objective framework for employee feedback. When legitimate management issues were raised to HR, no corrective action was taken. Instead, it resulted in direct retaliation from leadership, which was left unaddressed by the organization. Significant Under-Market Pay: Compensation is well below industry standards for similar scopes of work. To give context, transitioning into a comparable role at a different company yielded a 37% increase in base pay. Flawed & Inaccurate Sales Compensation: The commission and incentive structures for the sales organization are unnecessarily convoluted. This complexity frequently leads to errors in commission payouts, causing widespread frustration among sellers. Notably, these calculation mistakes are consistently detrimental to the employee and rarely seem to resolve in the seller's favor. Siloed "HQ-Centric" Culture: There is a heavy disconnect between corporate headquarters and regional teams. The culture feels highly insular, creating an "in-group" dynamic where those outside of headquarters have very limited visibility, influence, or opportunities for career progression.
