Palo Alto Networks Environment Employee Reviews

What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?

Most colleagues are drivers and work with a high degree of sense of urgency which helps drive better outcomes internally and externally.

Team is positive but leadership

People are valued, including diversity and inclusion.

Review from Customer Support Dept

Most people are very happy to come to work and genuinely buy into our company values.

Review from Engineering Dept

The people we work with are great, our products are stellar and people are positive.

It is quite 'homey' for such a large company. It is easy to get to know others and make connections, which makes the day more pleasant and work flow faster (as you know who to approach!)

The atmosphere in my team is very positive, and everyone collaborates in the integration.

Review from Sales Dept

New Grad program is exceptional

Review from Engineering Dept

The most positive thing about Palo Alto Network's culture/environment is the willingness to collaborate. Coworkers are always down to join a zoom meeting to discuss and share ideas.

There is a lot of collaboration

Great culture that is supportive and I get to work remotely.

Review from HR Dept

We have a compelling mission to make the world safer, one day at a time.

i am not really sure at this point.

Warm, collaboration, passionate about the mission!

The people are always very nice and supportive in general

Review from Engineering Dept

my new manager is excellent and honest and open

People genuinely seem to enjoy working together. I see and hear them talking about work in the gym. The environment is welcoming in its diversity and attitude. I've worked at other top-ranked organizations where the attitude could be interpreted as arrogant and unwelcoming. Not the case here

Review from Sales Dept

Respect - I see it in every meeting. Regardless of the level of the people at the table - people aren't afraid to ask a question, or have a difference of opinion. When it's expressed this brings dynamic dialogue. This is vital for continued innovation.

Review from HR Dept

Disruption and innovation and the driving forces here

Transparent and collaborative environment makes a fun place to work!

Review from HR Dept

What needs to change to make the company culture better?

clear opportunities for growth/advancement, and better training budget availability

Review from Engineering Dept

Replace execs, starting with the head of HR (LH)

Consideration for others 1. Book a meeting or huddle room if you need to talk for a relative longer period of time 2. Release booked rooms if you don't need them

Review from Customer Success Dept

Management needs to care more about work/life balance

Pace at which we work and things are expected to be done

hire balanced team of none alpha - narcissitic people. But like hires like so i dont think the quality of people will change.

Review from Sales Dept

Carefully evaluate people managers before putting them into place and giving them carte blanche power. That's a mistake. Before hiring these people into roles where they will manage others, take a look at their track record. Ask the ppl who worked FOR them, not just the ppl for whom they worked.

Review from Operations Dept

Upwards feedback, at the moment staff are not being heard by management

Review from Operations Dept

Clarity of purpose for each team so that individuals can execute well against a shared view, top down.

Leadership says the right things but they dont take actions to imolemebt what they say. Need to treat people with respect.

Leadership needs to sow team-building and cohesion, not discord and cut-throat culture. They need to do this through demonstration. On too many C-level and senior executive meetings, people are just rude. They treat us and like we are insignificant. Feedback should always be constructive to motivate
