  Covid-19 recovery

  As Proofpoint has grown, so have our programs continued to evolve to meet our colleagues’ needs, which we believe is essential to attract and retain employees of the highest caliber. We regularly and frequently communicate with and listen to our employees through small group surveys, interactive forums and townhalls, emails and online resources, to then iterate our processes and programs to improve the employee experience. For example, at our weekly townhall meetings, our CEO and other members of the executive team engage our global workforce with updates on the COVID-19 pandemic, our ongoing business operations, and other topics of interest.; ; Over the past year the employee experience has changed. They have encountered, observed and felt a transition from our traditional programs to virtual offerings that employees and their families can participate in, balancing a mix of live and on-demand activity. These online programs include educational classes taught by our fellow colleagues, mental health courses (mindfulness, resilience, meditation), cooking classes, financial well-being support, and “Vacation at Home” ideas. We realized that many of our parents sometimes need a little additional support, and because of this, Proofpoint created programming for Proofpoint kids, which included week-long STEAM camps during the summer, and offered ongoing story time, trivia games, art and dance, writing and oral presentation classes.; ; We launched in the summer of 2020, ProofpointEDU, a series of classes for Proofpoint kids taught by Proofpoint employees including topics like math, science, history, and cybersecurity for kids ages 5-15. Further, we introduced virtual team building programs such as trivia, bingo, escape rooms, and other group activities, all done via Zoom. Our Mindfulness program included music concerts, meditation, and resilience training.; ; In recognition of what we created for our employees, in July 2020, Proofpoint won the Espresa Innovation and Excellence Award for Culture Benefits.

  Equal opportunity

  We embrace and foster the diversity of our team members, customers, stakeholders and consumers. Everyone is valued and appreciated for their unique backgrounds, experiences, thoughts and talents, all of which contributes to the growth and sustainability of our business. We strive to cultivate a culture and vision that supports and enhances the Company’s ability to recruit, develop and retain diverse talent at every level. As a global and distributed workforce, we recognize and celebrate our team members, their varied backgrounds and cultures. Our career development opportunities are designed to foster inclusivity through ongoing career conversations that actively advance and develop people of all backgrounds.; ; We believe that diversity, inclusion, and opportunity is a journey and we are committed to building a diverse and inclusive company and society for our employees, customers, partners, and shareholders. In order to create a more diverse and inclusive work environment, we provide education, training and tools so that all employees can become aware of bias, how it exists and how to mitigate it. As we continue to shape our work environment and world-class organization to be more inclusive and inviting, we are actively striving to build an extensive pipeline of talent through various programs. Our internal programs enable and empower our hiring managers to identify alternative and emerging talent pools and to create an inclusive candidate experience.

  Wellbeing

  Together with our employees we are building a secure future, and it starts with securing our most important asset—our people. Our commitment to wellbeing is built on a foundation of helping employees get access to great programs and resources for maintaining their health. We offer global programs that provide and enhance a healthy, balanced lifestyle. Our localized benefits keep both the individual and family in mind, so our employees can take full advantage of what matters most to them, for where they are in life. We offer employer-paid life, disability and employee assistance programs. We also offer global programs for our employees’ physical, mental and financial health.; ; Since the COVID-19 pandemic was declared in early 2020 and our employees began working from home, we quickly transitioned to virtual offerings that employees and their families can participate in. These online programs include educational classes taught by our fellow colleagues, mental health courses (mindfulness, resilience, meditation), cooking classes, financial wellbeing support, and “Vacation at Home” ideas. Realizing that many of our parents sometimes need a little additional support, Proofpoint created a series for Proofpoint kids, which included week-long STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Math) camps during the summer, and offers ongoing story time, trivia games, art and dance classes. Also launched in the summer was ProofpointEDU, a series of classes for Proofpoint kids taught by Proofpoint employees including topics like math, science, history, and cybersecurity for kids ages 5-15. All of our programs are a balanced mix of live and on-demand activity.
