Avoid Fortinet Prague TAC center

Pros

Overall Fortinet products and company is good, innovative and you have opportunity to learn a lot of interesting things. Salary comes on time, 30 days of vacation, stock options.

Cons

Job is stressful and you are demanded to go beyond the limits. Management is completely wrong. You cannot complain for anything as you become immediately inconvenient for them. They prefer their own friends and groups. You'll always hear only false promises and different stories. Nobody cares about you, about work/life balance, job offers no flexibility at all. You are just being constantly pushed to deliver the numbers. The most of the experienced people are gone by now. During the last 2 years more than half of L1 team left, the same is happening on L2 this year.

An amazing company to work for

Pros

-Cybersecurity: Which in itself is the fastest growing sector in IT. -Aggressive Growth: Globally ~5000 strong, Canada wide ~1000+ and in Burnaby specifically ~700 employees with 2 big buildings that the company owns on Still Creek Drive. Already one of the world's leader in Security with over 310K clients under it's belt. -Location: Working for a big employer, right in Vancouver area is a big plus in my opinion. It is Fortinet's biggest R7D center globally and is critical to it's operations. Most of the top selling and key products are developed here. -Growth: Have seen people who joined at junior position climb up the ladder to team leads/senior members in a few years. As long as you perform well, the company would reward that. -Amazing infrastructure: World class facilities. -Convenient location: Close to Gilmore station. -Competitive compensation + stocks + benefits. -Job security.

Cons

Lacks diversity in workforce. But there has been a tremendous improvement on that front in the last couple of years and heading to a more dynamic work environment.

Pros

Excellent pay, decent workload, stock options.

Cons

Technology is still confusing, every firmware solves issues and causes others. Small kitchen space - will be solved by the new office.
