Pros

Proofpoint has far exceed my expectations as a company. From the leadership to the team collaboration, you won't find a better place to work. This is a place you can call home. Many employees have been here a long time which allows deep integration into business and the ability to create pathways to success for others. You will have the opportunity to work with top though leaders - smart, collaborative and willing to share! Culture is conductive to creating friends and mentors with lots of opportunity to get involved in the business. With Leadership continuing the momentum of employee engagement around issues like sustainability, diversity and inclusion, and making work meaningful really excites me for the future.

Cons

No company is 100% perfect. We are growing, learning and evolving daily. That always comes with certain hurdles. Leadership is big on keeping everyone informed. It's important to remember not to get hung up on what's changing and focus on what is progressing. I am proud to work for Proofpoint. I really do not see any cons!

Pros

The team is diverse and due it being a large company, procedures are pretty established. That's literally it.

Cons

Uncommunicative staff, uncertainty and lack of communication when it comes to job security, and cold impersonal treatment that makes people feel like robots instead of humans. Employees are getting replaced by AI because of the greedy investment firm that owns this company so if you work here, good luck to you-management is actively trying to replace you my love! The hilarious part is that they don't even try to hide it and they try to make it seem like a positive thing that you will be out of a job due to AI with their ludicrous All Hands meetings and presenting their dystopian AI implementations in a positive light. Ridiculous! Micromanaging is extreme to the point where it's laughable. In my 10 years of being in the workforce I have never seen this level of silly nitpicking. I am in a constant state of anxiety and never knowing where I stand with management. Entry level employees are disposable and middle management is overworked, often doing the jobs of several entry level employees and working weekends to save the company money which is so heartbreaking.
