Pros

Some great and talented people that work here. Too bad they don’t stick around once they realize what they signed up for.

Cons

This place is toxic. It enables and allows for leadership to lead by fear and people are quick to throw each other under the bus. The people who thrive here are bullies. There is no company culture. It is a cheap place that doesn’t provide ESPP, raises only account for inflation and all this while being overworked. Additional resources are hard to get and all job offers need to be approved by CEO. You may have an excellent candidate but that can quickly be derailed if the CEO feels the salary is too much or if he’s in a bad mood.

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.
