      Pros

      Great Executives, Great Products, Great People, Great Support.... I have been an employee here at Proofpoint for years and have no plans on leaving. The support and executive sponsorship is great. In all of my companies and careers - this has been the best place I have worked.

      Cons

      Acquiring companies a little fast, which could make migration of products a struggle.

      Pros

      Technology and C-level leadership understands the market and business. Unbelievable amount of training for sales teams to learn the technology and sell. Need more sales training. Good place to get some tech experience if you can put up with low sales, then take your tech to other companies.

      Cons

      Great senior leader hired a year ago and fundamentally changed the work ethic and environment. Much more professional. Last month a major change in sales leadership in Utah pushed that leader out. A real lack of understanding of the value and experience of that leader. Bad move. Politics and immature home-grown management caused the shake up. I will not stay here much longer. Sales comp plans are much lower than other tech firms in Utah. No 401K matching. No team events.
