Pros

Great place to be if you are a total gear head. Fortinet makes an incredible product and despite lack of traditional "enterprise" market recognition has continued to grow install base world wide and revenue aggressively for the past few years.

Cons

An engineering company run by engineers some time investing in areas that make no sense while ignoring areas that scream opportunity. Fortinet's marketing makes Barracuda's look compelling. Marketing here is simply a joke and does not accurately describe the company position or ability. Communication and infrastructure is a nightmare. You are pretty much on your own here day to day unless you are in HQ.

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.
