Challenging, engaging, and underpaid

Pros

Check Point has a Challenging environment, where you will almost certainly learn something new every day, with great coworkers. They provide meals (lunch) as a benefit, and have an excellent medical benefits program.

Cons

The worst parts about working at Check Point are: The stress. Often you will need to work very hard -- put in (unpaid) overtime, and sacrifice your work life balance to stand out as a valued employee. Frequently you will be underpaid in relation to others doing the same work at different companies. There is a feeling of being treated as a cost rather than an asset; and I have witnessed quite a few co-workers leaving for substantially greater salaries at other companies.

Pros

The entire company is driven to its success (i.e. close to 0 politics, etc.). Company is still managed by its founder so it's highly focused and didn't lost its original vision. Products are customer oriented with good chances to actually succeed. The company is an amazing management school, for how to run an efficient company.

Cons

This focus may come at the price of not researching enough. Upper management focus can sometimes undermine mid management.
