I love working with the great people. Check Point has this startup feel, but the financial security of a big company. I'm always learning new things, and we have some freedom to suggest new technologies. There is always something going on that I haven't felt my work mundane after 7+ years here. I feel that I'm really making a difference for the company and this is important for me.
Employees are rewarded for good performance every year with bonuses, salary increases, and even RSU! Some say that this company is cheap, but for the company to send all their employees and significant others across the globe to Mexico for a 3 days excursion has got to speak for itself. And, this is not the first time. Plus, team outings, breakfast on Fridays, and the free waiter.com lunches every day is a great plus!
There are some challenges working with Israel (our headquarter), due to time differences and some language barriers, but this is expected.
The company forces you to think out of the box because you don't have an unlimited amount of funding for your projects, so you have to really find the best solution to get what you need.
Because we have been without a leader for a while, there have been some turnovers in the company, but our new CMO is aggressively working to hire new talents.
Our new CMO, Marie Hattar, is awesome!
She brings in a lot of energy, passion, and purpose.
This is what the company is missing for a long time now, someone to really lead the marketing front here in San Carlos, and bring in the Israeli component to make it one company, one voice.
I'm really, really excited that Marie is here!
She has already made a tremendous effect in the company culture and how we look at things in the short period of time she is here.
She is so open and honest about what is going on, and so approachable!
A real people-person.
We are very lucky to have her and I'm looking forward to only greatness for the company!
