Pros: Palo Alto Networks is one of the best places to learn and grow. The amount of data we dealt with here was enormous. The security tools we build save companies and people. A leader in cybersecurity, it enforces best practices to write code, instead of just getting things done.

Work-life balance is cumbersome.
