From the people to our technologies, our Sales team gets immersed immediately in #LifeAtPaloAltoNetworks, and set up for success!

Kristin, Associate Account Manager:
"🌴What a Whirlwind Week in California! ✈️☀️ Just wrapped up an incredible week in Palo Alto Networks at the heart of innovation! My first week at the headquarters has been an absolute masterclass in learning and connection. From the moment I arrived, I was surrounded by wonderful people who made me feel right at home. This journey has been so much more than just onboarding; it's been about building the strongest network I could imagine, connecting with brilliant minds, and genuinely getting out of my comfort zone with challenging yet insightful roleplays. Every conversation and every interaction has contributed to a truly wonderful learning journey. I'm already counting down the days until I can be back here again! So much more to explore and learn."

Nicola, Major Account Manager:
"I am so excited to talk about eight weeks of intensive learning - the Palo Alto Networks FLIGHT Onboarding program 🚀 - what an incredible experience it was - and I am proud to have completed this journey! 😊 In 25 years selling software I have never had such a well-organized and professional onboarding training and enablement, I have never seen another company making such an investment. Palo Alto Networks is not only leader in cybersecurity but also number one in investing in people's skills and capabilities. 

What made this onboarding experience so special? It's all about people people people.... Strata-, Prisma-, Cortex-, Unit42-, PS, CS and other specialists gave us insights about the best of breed cybersecurity technology and transferred their knowledge with professionalism, passion and fun. But the extraordinary experience came from my talented colleagues of FLIGHT cohort 301 and our facilitators … Grateful to be part of it! I learned so much from each individual person about passion, collaboration, team spirit and cybersecurity. Thanks to the whole team for your support, it is great to be part of this extraordinary family and I am looking forward to meeting all of you again! Next chapter is to leverage all these experiences to make our Customers safer every day!"

Stephan, Solutions Consultant - Strategic Accounts:
"✈️ I've completed FLIGHT, our Onboarding Program at Palo Alto Networks 🎓 . It was an amazing experience over the past weeks. A special highlight was the week at our Headquarters in Santa Clara 🏢 , where we had the opportunity to listen to great speakers in our sessions and meet other New Hires from all over the world in person. Seeing our Executive Briefing Center, SOC, and Labs was especially impressive."
