Pluspunten

This is for marketing. i was here two years ago working with product marketing but also worked with the other departments. You can learn nearly everything you need to know: Salesforce, marketo, email marketing, landing pages, analytics. A lot of other companies don't have everything set up the way Check Point does. Once you've been at Check Point, you'll be prepared to enter into any other company's marketing department with ease and bring value that other companies don't have, for example if they don't have processes in place, you can bring over knowledge that you learned from Check Point

Minpunten

1. Low pay. Other companies in the bay give you up to 70% more. Dont stay here for more than a year, two is the absolute maximum. 2. Mediocrity. Lots of people here are skating by on mediocre talent due to low pay, so all the talented people leave. There are some talented people here though. Lots of older people here like an old folks home. Wheres the young fresh talent. 3. Somewhat toxic. Sometimes you’re left scratching your head while talking to people with half a brain, and ask yourself “do these people really exist? Or am i in an Office simulation?” A few people are rude but most people are nice. 4. Lack of vision/purpose. Company seems task-oriented, and leadership doesn’t have a long term vision that inspires confidence. 5. No coordination. Departments work in silos. Sales and marketing dont work together. 6. Not enough focus on the WHY. Why are we doing our projects - whats the goal? Come here to learn and bounce.

Pluspunten

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

Minpunten

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.
