Pros

Good Team members. Salary Okish, Health care.

Cons

Pros are decreasing on a weekly basis and cons increasing. RTO 4 day mandate is being pushed hard without providing parking options. Criteria for bonus evaluations changed at short notice which impacted final bonus payments. At the moment it feels like all take and very little return. Overall it is a stressful work environment and it feels like the threat of more layoffs is ever present as AI is being pushed into all departments. I would not recommend Proofpoint to a friend as its not a good place to work at the moment.

Thanks for sharing your experience. We’re glad to hear your team and benefits were positives, and we’re dissappointed that other parts of your experience felt frustrating. Feedback around RTO expectations, parking, and bonus clarity is valued and being shared internally. We appreciate you taking the time to voice your perspective. Thank you again.

Pros

fairly lax with lots of time to do things

Cons

many. Former CEO ran things poorly and took in managers who brought along their problems and animosities with them. Not only that, they were allowed to invite their friends to come and join too, many of them owing their jobs to someone creating a bro culture. Even though top mgmt changed since the sale, its many of these people still there to this day. Most of the systems were a black box, existing engineers were mostly uncooperative to keep their knowledge to themselves, the offshore engineers in one particular country were especially bad for this. I have seen major accomplishments achieved by someone, where so many others had failed, only to get fired soon after.
