Pros
Great sales team. Helpful coworkers and collaborative culture within the Sales Department. Commission structure and accelerators help to offset some of the frustration.
Cons
Proofpoint used to be a great place to work. The culture was fantastic which helped make up for the lower than market base salaries. As of the beginning of 2015, upper management did their absolute best to turn the culture into a sweatshop run by fear. Long fought deals are routinely turned over to someone new at the last moment who is then given credit for the win.
