Pros

Proofpoint delivers data protection solutions that are best in class. Customers are happy and we have high customer retention rates. I love going into an eval with prospects because I can trust that our product does what we say it can do and far better than our competitors. Our support team is great and customers are happy, expect for the price they have to pay! I love the culture so far and enjoy working here.

Cons

Our price is way higher than our competition which can be a challenge. I think our building is basic and doesn't offer many frills you'll see with some companies in town. The pay scale is less competitive but Quota's are more attainable. That said you have to crush it to make up the difference.

Pros

fairly lax with lots of time to do things

Cons

many. Former CEO ran things poorly and took in managers who brought along their problems and animosities with them. Not only that, they were allowed to invite their friends to come and join too, many of them owing their jobs to someone creating a bro culture. Even though top mgmt changed since the sale, its many of these people still there to this day. Most of the systems were a black box, existing engineers were mostly uncooperative to keep their knowledge to themselves, the offshore engineers in one particular country were especially bad for this. I have seen major accomplishments achieved by someone, where so many others had failed, only to get fired soon after.
