Lots of Opportunity, forever grateful for my time here.
Pros
Great opportunity - I joined Check Point through their Entry Level Program, which included 9 weeks in Tel Aviv at HQ. They taught me how to be a customer facing engineer, which jump started my career. Solid tech. Nothing can be taken away from Checkpoint on the technology front, they have and will continue to build a top tier next gen security platform.
Cons
Pay is not on par with industry competitors, variable compensation seems to be "up to management" and sometimes territory definition is so disjointed that you work projects/deals and end up not being compensated. Really tough to move up within the company without switching teams/roles, compensation increases are promised and then delayed for significant amounts of time due to the disconnect between US based leaders and Israeli HQ.
