      Pros

      WLB, No PIP, no layoff. If you just want a place to retire and a stable braindead job working on business logic that means nothing to you, this is a good fit.

      Cons

      Low pay, slow promo, no growth. There are some especially incompetent managers/directors here. Who came to Canada in the early 2000s and pretty much stay here forever and just seem to be out of touch with pretty much everything. You are literally wasting your life here. Any self-respecting, intellegent, or aspirational indivdual would not last long here.

      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.
