      Great products, poor culture

      Pros

      Solid technology. Respected name and customer loyalty for legacy firewall products. North America TAC/support managers are professional and care about customers.

      Cons

      Horrible culture. Global HQs does everything, and not well. Local/regional mgrs have no ability to effect change. KPIs, KPIs, KPIs. No one wants to hear feedback or suggestions, even on behalf of customers. Systems are complex and training is cursory. Very poor communication. Mgmt forecasts way too high, and then everyone pays the price with threats of being fired. You will fight for every penny of commissions. Don't plan to ever make OTE. The competition is light years ahead on marketing and partner enablement. CEO in Israel has to approve every local marketing campaign worldwide.

      Pros

      Good engineering on hardware based products. Great engineering on management tools. Smart support and field staff- most are a joy to work with.

      Cons

      Sales management cheats staff who leave company out of commission payments. They also use tactics like hiring (as temps) relatives of decision makers to win deals. Management tolerates harassment of employees. Field staff is paid about 30% then industry norms- most leave when they discover this. Headquarters buildings in US and Israel are dumps.

      Pause and do your homework

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Hot field currently and most products are top of their class

      Cons

      Pay is low in relation to competition. Management is scattered as they don't have a true sales hierarchy like most established companies do. No verticals, just now focusing one team on the Enterprise space and territories seem to be put together with no real logic or consistency.
