Pros

Management is great!! It is IMPOSSIBLE to not be impressed with the strategic direction that management has taken. Proofpoint has truly chosen to INNOVATE and bring true, NEW value to their clients. Rather than duplicate and add new bells and whistles. If you love technology and want to add to the protection of data --- JUMP ON BOARD!!!

Cons

Truthfully, not a one. Maybe stop offering free soda and do smoothies and health drinks instead!!

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.
