Check Point Software Technologies reviews about "pay"

-pay is good but considered low (according to other comapinies)

CEO Senior Sales Management Below Average pay and benefits Cheap company travel policies Micromanagement Commission targets changed on a whim, very rarely paid.

Pay is well below industry standards. Local management has no decision making power the consistently blames Israel for illogical decisions and directives. Constantly manipulating quota/targets. Ex. Deal not showing under your sales credit, you get the revenue assigned correctly after much fighting, but your quota goes up by twice the value of the deal, sighting the “potential revenue” for that customer. They have been doing layoffs through Covid, but say they are not doing so. Putting people on plan instead and will dismiss as under performing in order to dump higher salaries.

Where do I start? As other reviews have stated, there are not enough developers to keep up with our competition. Management still has old fashioned ideas about what security is and commitment to cloud products is paying lip service. Company already overtaken by PAN and soon to be overtaken by Fortinet. One senior exec told a room of people at a Town Hall that he had missed his targets for six consecutive quarters, who gets away with this? Cloud R&D totally maxed out all of the time, no slack in the system to go back and fix bugs in products, they have to move on to the next "me too" feature. Spend some of the $4B you have in the bank that you boast about at every quarterly earnings call on keeping the company relevant. Comp plans are so complicated that even Stephen Hawking can't work them out. If they can stiff you on commission or bonuses, they will. External training done on a shoestring, so any cloud training will need to be done in your own time and on your own dime.

Mismanaged, stressful, overwhelming workload, low pay.

The salary is too low.

Stress alot of work, low paying

- you could spend years here on an entry level salary - constantly understaffed, it never gets better - constantly handling a very high workload, resulting in almost everyone staying an hour and more late, daily (uncompensated), which averages at least 240 unpaid hours a year - people constantly missing their lunches and breaks every day, due to being stuck on calls, or because someone else is already on lunch. It's you snooze you lose when it comes to lunches - a certification is a requirement every 6 months, so on top of working 9+ hours a day, studying for check point certifications is basically unpaid homework - highly micromanaged, nearly every aspect of your job has an employee grade assigned to it - high caseload will obviously result in poorer case handling and customer service, which thus results in getting no pay increase and the bare minimum of your yearly bonus - cheap company that doesn't care about you, they only care about stats and profits
