Our Values
Our values give us purpose
and drive our passion
Our values are POINTED toward our northstar, and embody the culture at Proofpoint. They're central to our beliefs in business and in life. They’re how we measure ourselves at the end of every day, and the qualities we seek in our employees, vendors, partners and clients.
Principled
We strive to always do the right thing–for our clients, our team and the
people around us. We ensure our actions have a positive impact now and in the future.
Open-Minded
We allow flexible thinking to change our point of view when compelling information is presented our way. While we have a process, we know there's always room for improvement. We're only going to be better when we're open to new ideas, tactics and perspectives.
Inquisitive
We pride ourselves on asking the right questions. We know we don’t know everything. We do our research and find creative ways to solve problems. We continuously seek knowledge in order to stay ahead of industry trends and on top of our marketing game.
Nimble
We are quick-thinking, alert and light on our feet. We are capable of operating with ambiguity. Change doesn't scare us–it excites us! We don't wait, we take action.
Transparent
We operate in a very open, straight-forward and honest manner. We believe in telling it like it is, in a professional and constructive way. Transparency has always served us well.
Empathetic
We care about our clients and put ourselves in their shoes. We care about our team and will always have their backs. We care about what we do, what we say, and how we say it. We care, period.
Deliberate
We act in ways that are conscious and intentional. Everything we say is purposeful, and everything we do is with reason and good judgment.
