Pros

A decent company when looking from outside.

Cons

You will feel like you are in a hell, if you're not from china or if you don't know Mandarin. Most of the positive reviews you see here are coming from Chinese employees (if fact they are right, because the company is very comfortable if you're Chinese). Favoritism, poor company culture, many employees don't speak in English.

Pros

Solid, stable, predictable. Most people are out of the office by 4 or 5 pm. Life is easy and expectations are low.

Cons

Little support for marketing. Fortinet has too many products and too many product lines - and every product owner is fighting for attention of sales. The company is firmly wedded to it's hardware roots. Fortinet has not invested in internal systems. Reporting is awkard and cumbersome, and adaption on enterprise AI is still a long ways off. There are no women in senior roles.
