Remote work is a plus and nothing else - Software Engineer Proofpoint Employee Review

Compensation is good Teams are nice and helpful Leadership Unlimited PTO

Return to office policy isn't the best Some co workers are kind of lazy

There are a handful of genuinely good people throughout the company - not within leadership.

Employees are expected to do more with less- leading to long hours and unsustainable workload. Work-life balance is talked about but not consistently demonstrated by leadership. The culture felt performance-driven at the expense of people. I often felt that employees were valued more for their output than as individuals. Speaking up, challenging decisions, or offering a different perspective did not feel psychologically safe. The CEO’s town hall messaging reinforces this culture. Statements such as “ If you don’t like it here, you can leave” and that employees who don’t learn Ai will be come “obsolete” came across as lacking empathy. Trust in leadership was low from my perspective.
