      Pros

      -good pay but 401k is a joke -great products

      Cons

      Nobody could have predicted that the new CEO change would completely dismantle our entire culture and everything that made Palo Alto Networks a great place to work. It is now a depressing place where most of the top talent is running for the hills. The leadership team does not embody our core values, people are no longer at the heart of our culture, nepotism is so blatant it's disgusting. There are too many new leaders who have no idea what they are doing but being paid well due to cronyism. The people who built the company are treated as less than because we aren't in the Google inner circle. We have a Chief PEOPLE Officer who doesn't even pretend to like people and communication in the org is abysmal. Attrition will continue to spike.

      Pros

      Largest cyber security company in the world with an ever-expanding portfolio

      Cons

      Largest cyber security company in the world with an ever-expanding portfolio. They buy companies quicker than they can integrate them and is the antithesis of a caring employer. Nikesh could layoff 80% of employees tomorrow and the stock would still skyrocket. I decided to pursue a new opportunity after CyberArk was acquired and prior to giving my official two week notice I let my team know, and started training them in our brand new cutting edge solutions so that they could take over my workload without any roadblocks or hiccups. As soon as I put in my two week notice the company locks me out and cuts off all of my benefits and does not pay me for the notice that I have given, putting my family in a very precarious place during the interim of my work. This is by far one of the most classless things I’ve seen a company do, please watch out for yourself at Palo because no one in management will. I am extremely passionate about the space that I operate in and often found myself working 12 hour days- the ability to have work life balance at a place like Palo Alto is zero.
