Palo Alto Networks Bangalore

They have done layoffs in the past. Guess they have faced some tumultuous time

Networks businesses have mature products, higher entry barriers, good profits, not in a mad rush for growth. The work culture is generally good.

I think they’re a great company to work for. They’re our competitors but have a lot of ex-colleagues working there who vouch for it. Good pay, RSUs. Leaders in Gartner MQs and other analysts reviews. Good innovation happening there. A bit of Cisco work culture since a lot of folks from Cisco have joined there which means there’ll be good WLB. There’ve been some layoffs last year but largely in non-tech roles but that’s expected when all their competitors did double digit layoffs. A con is that there’s a bit more attrition than normal. Big company woes. Lot of M&A so readjustments.

You can join, it has pretty decent WLB

Found this interesting as I am contemplating a position there. Glassdoor reviews mostly point to 4 days WFO which is too much to claim WLB. Also I would expect collaboration with US teams making late hour work regular. Any real insights into this would be highly appreciated.
