Pros

Well known company in cybersecurity industry, great expense account, excellent company to build your resume, and you get to onboard for one week in Tel Aviv.

Cons

Extremely underpaid compared to competition, onboarding is extremely challenging (tribal knowledge organization with average tenure of employee under one year due to high turnover), they will change your quota and commission throughout the year without your notice, prepare to not get paid commissions you are owed due to "clerical errors", customer support is weak, poorly marketed in the industry - seen as a dinosaur and not included in firewall evaluations, leadership is arrogant and believes the reason the company is doing poorly is because no one knows how to sell our excellent products.

Pros

The core responsibilities offer solid experience, and many team members are dedicated, talented, and great to work with.

Cons

Lack of HR Support: The company lacks a safe, objective framework for employee feedback. When legitimate management issues were raised to HR, no corrective action was taken. Instead, it resulted in direct retaliation from leadership, which was left unaddressed by the organization. Significant Under-Market Pay: Compensation is well below industry standards for similar scopes of work. To give context, transitioning into a comparable role at a different company yielded a 37% increase in base pay. Flawed & Inaccurate Sales Compensation: The commission and incentive structures for the sales organization are unnecessarily convoluted. This complexity frequently leads to errors in commission payouts, causing widespread frustration among sellers. Notably, these calculation mistakes are consistently detrimental to the employee and rarely seem to resolve in the seller's favor. Siloed "HQ-Centric" Culture: There is a heavy disconnect between corporate headquarters and regional teams. The culture feels highly insular, creating an "in-group" dynamic where those outside of headquarters have very limited visibility, influence, or opportunities for career progression.
