Avantages
I'm closing in on my 6 month anniversary and would say the following in support of working at Check Point... 1. The People - there is a great sense of teamwork and collaboration. I really enjoy working with the teams I support. 2. Salary/Benefits - all of my requirements were met. I spent 15+ years at my previous employer and was able to get a nice bump up moving to Check Point. 3. Company Direction - Cybersecurity in general continues to be on an upward growth trajectory and Check Point is right in the mix of all the big names. The company is continuing to grow organically and through acquisitions.
Inconvénients
I would say the following has made working at Check Point somewhat challenging... 1. Decision Making & Control - a good amount of operations requires someone at headquarters (Tel Aviv, Israel) to approve/reject. This is mostly done via a ticket process which has its own pros/cons. 2. Complex Sales Compensation Plan - at first review of the program, it seemed fairly straight forward, but after getting into the fine print, it quickly became quite complex and sales people find it difficult to comprehend all the details.
