Pros

At Check Point, I have the opportunity to work with some of the best individuals both with in our company, Channel Partners and Customers. Check Point provides the opportunity for me to work across geographies, verticals and customer segments. Security is top of mind for all of IT and Business today, and provides us the opportunity to be relevant for all of IT, InfoSec and Business Leaders.

Cons

The Security landscape is highly competitive both with other large competitors, niche start ups and native embedded security across network, cloud and computing resources. Security spans many areas across network, cloud, endpoint & mobile security which can be a lot for those who want to focus on a singular product/solution/segment. Personally I see that as much as a positive, but it can be challenging for new folks to get up to speed on the entire portfolio.

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.
