Great product, No loyalty to their employees

Pros

Fortinet has a lot of good things going for it. It's products are some of the best in class, and the engineering team has done a phenomenal job creating products that position Fortinet in a great spot on the Gartner Magic Quadrant. The company offers employees a good work/life balance, great benefits and unlimited PTO.

Cons

Alot of unpredictable change. Fortinet does not understand what it means to be loyal to their hard working employees. If the direction of the wind changes, they may decide to lay off for fire individuals. There is no sense of stability. It is a technology company that wants the sales success, but often times doesn't allow enough time in a sales cycle to have that success come to fruition before firing individuals. Marketing also gets a bad rap. And it should. The marketing team is an outstanding group of very talented and hard working people, but their resources are often limited or tapped out. Fortinet does not appear to look at marketing as an essential function in company success. They just assume the product will sell its self.

Cons

- They should work more to become a multicultural company -in some teams meetings are held only in Mandarin. - IT department basically doesn't exist and you should take care of A-Z of all your IT inquiries.

Pros

30 days of Holidays and Stock options

Cons

Not enough training, not enough benefits, hiring then firing people because they are never sure about their activity. Process changing every months. Not stable and no possible internal evolution. Management is the worst I have never seen in my whole career.
