Pros

Very few positive things to say about working here. Someone warned me about all of the fake reviews on ForeScout's glassdoor page and I wish I would have listened prior to joining 6 months ago. I see the last 5 have been planted from within. Before joining FS, I spoke to several people that had left ForeScout and they ALL warned me to look elsewhere, but I thought it can't be that bad right? Wrong. See cons section for further explanation. Pros: Friendly people in every department, you just have to find them. - Beautiful office space - Standard befits, pto, compensation

Cons

Where do I begin? - Management is a complete joke. Unapproachable and in it for themselves - I saw no hierarchy in a previous fake review...that's laughable - No career advancement - Broken product and broken teams everywhere - Marketing? Is there anyone over there doing anything? - 0 communication between departments. 0 - No business processes - Boring and uneventful work "parties"

Wow, I'm sorry to hear you have had such a poor experience over the past six months. All companies have areas to work on, and we try hard to continually improve and make ForeScout a place where employees feel happy, empowered and want to grow. Our products solve a unique customer problem for the world's largest companies and government entities, and our customers love them. Growing pains often come when companies scale as fast as we are. But we have some of the best employees here at ForeScout who are smart, dedicated, culture-adds that work hard and enjoy celebrating our successes. We try to promote from within, and there are many examples of that. We're always interested in hearing employee feedback. If you have suggestions, I encourage you to discuss with your manager, or with me directly. -MDC

Pros

Lots of intelligent hardworking people who will drop what they have going on to help you. Excellent culture of coming together to get stuff done. Work life balance is good (you draw boundaries).

Cons

Benefits are ok, nothing stellar.
