Pros

Great technology, company vision. Company and finance are strong and well positioned for future growth. Co-workers are very good, and in essence willing to help, but mngmt is issue, (see below)

Cons

Mngmt in EMEA/INTL is very French, and has no real focus. Lots of na kroon politics and unwillingness to interoperate between regions and teams.

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.
