- 5.0greatQA Automation Engineer • Former EmployeeToronto, CanadaMarch 3, 2024Pros: It is a great company to work as an intern.Cons: There is nothing really bad to say.
- 4.0Great people, market leader, poised for growthDirector of Engineering • Current EmployeeSunnyvale, CaliforniaOctober 15, 2018Pros: * Investing in employee learning and growth: In recent months we have had a surge in the number of training sessions for engineers, including sessions to teach ML and DS companywide. Attending conferences is encouraged and supported. * Growth potential: Product vision leverages Proofpoint’s unique-dominant position in the market to solve customer challenges. It’s quite exciting to be engineering groundbreaking projects every quarter! * Startup engineering culture: Some of Proofpoint’s backend technology choices/implementations can’t keep up with service growth. Leadership has repeatedly shown a willingness to invest in rebuilds and broader initiatives for the migration of old services to newer tech stacks.Cons: * Only one extra monitor permitted per engineer * Infrastructure and operations tools inhibit engineering’s ability to deliver * 401k matching program leaves a lot to be desired
