Pros

Very strong product portfolio, lots of growth and opportunities. Workforce is small enough that you usually interface with one or two people in each team to get things done. Company lets you move very quickly and get a lot done.

Cons

Benefits are a little weak, not a lot of formal training and base salary is a bit under market rate. Stock options can be lucrative, especially given the growth trajectory of the company.

Pros

Palo Alto Firewalls are truly revolutionary and it was great to see the "wow" factor when customers got it!

Cons

territories have gotten smaller and quotas continue to increase. Increased Forecast visibility to the tune of weekly forecast and commit calls, yes you will have to commit each week to the weekly closed revenue as well as pipeline you're building on a weekly basis. It's a numbers machine and management does a great job to manage SalesForce on a daily basis. If you like weekly forecast/commit calls and the stress of your number over your head then Palo is a great fit for you. If you like running your own business with hands off management then Palo's not a good fit for you. As I said, small territories and big numbers.....High Stress environment!
