SUNNYVALE, Calif., March 14, 2024 – Proofpoint, Inc., a leading cybersecurity and compliance company, announced today its recent recognition in Comparably’s 2024 quarterly Best Places to Work Awards in multiple prominent categories, including Best Company Outlook, Best Global Culture, Best Engineering Teams, Best Sales Teams, and Best HR Teams. The awards join nine other Comparably honors won by Proofpoint in 2023 including Best Company for Diversity, Best Company for Women, Best Company Culture, Best Company Compensation, Happiest Employees, Best Company Perks & Benefits, Best Company Work-Life Balance, Best HR Teams and Best Places to Work in the Bay Area.
Comparably is a leading workplace culture and corporate brand reputation platform with 20 million anonymous employee ratings on 70,000 U.S. & Canadian-based companies. Each quarter it honors companies with Best Places to Work Awards, recognizing outstanding workplaces and the exceptional contributions of companies and individuals in fostering positive cultures, driving innovation, and delivering unparalleled employee experiences. Award winners are based solely on sentiment feedback from current employees who anonymously rated their employers on Comparably.com during a 12-month look-back period.
The award for “Best Company Outlook” acknowledges Proofpoint’s strategic initiatives and forward-thinking approach, scoring an A+ and ranking in the top 5% of other companies on Comparably with 1,001-5,000 employees. Surveys completed by employees note a strong sense of confidence about the future success of Proofpoint, with 74% likely to recommend it to a friend (eNPS – employee Net Promoter Score), and 88% saying they are excited to go to work each day.
Comparably’s recognition for “Best Global Company Culture” highlights the highest-rated workplace cultures of large companies (more than 500 employees) with an international footprint, with Proofpoint scoring an A+ rating and 4.9 out of 5 stars. This award follows Proofpoint’s December 2023 honor for Best Company Culture, which celebrates companies with a presence in North America.
Over 350 “Outlook Reviews” are available to view on Proofpoint’s Comparably profile. Sentiments show that “great colleagues,” “challenging work,” and “corporate mission” are just a few attributes that contribute to what makes our employees happy at work.
Employee feedback on more than 16 core culture metrics was also analyzed, measured and evaluated by specific departments by Comparably this quarter. As a result, Proofpoint’s engineering and sales teams are recognized as “one of the best” in their respective categories. Proofpoint’s HR team was also honored for the second consecutive year. Executives from each department celebrate the news:
