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 thing I enjoy best about Check Point being an engineer is that everyone is extremely knowledgeable and always willing to help. I have worked remote my entire tenure at Check Point and only occasionally visit an office, usually for training. My time is my own and I do not punch a clock. I am encouraged to explore my own passions and bring them with me when I engage with customers. It's a delight to be able to entertain customers and enjoy a nice meal, a game, a performance, or SCUBA diving. Check Point also throws great parties.

Cons

Being remote, regularly I only see my local co-workers, my customers and resellers. Personally I don't develop the same type or number of friendships being remote as working in an office, but on the positive side, I have made friends here I'll keep forever.

A real shame about Check Point...

Pros

Great core technology and engineering. Good place to learn - and then move on.

Cons

C-suite leadership doesn't really trust anyone outside of Israel. Outrageously high employee turnover in every non-technical area. Culturally engrained lack of customer empathy. Sales is stuck on the technology and struggles to drive to a customer business outcome.
