Pros

Unique and excellent product in an equally fast-growing industry means great opportunities to excel. Great atmosphere within team as people try to help others succeed. Company certainly looks after their employees with rewards, trips etc. in exchange for their hard work.

Cons

In a company that's growing at this speed there is certainly pressure to match this speed yourself.

Love your attitude and appreciate your review. You're right - we have a unique and excellent product and an amazing opportunity in front of us. This requires a high-octane culture where we move fast and push ourselves and each other to grow, continually innovate, and help the entire company succeed. Go Team ForeScout! -MDC

Pros

- excellent product that is best in class. if positioned correctly, competition cannot touch it (note this is not a NAC technology) - very collaborative culture. The company is growing rapidly so you have to manually break though historical governance procedures to get things done. Good news is that everyone wants to help. - transformative culture. Dead wood is not tolerated. - loyal customers. time and again i've seen customers willing to talk about their positive experiences with ForeScout. - comm plan. Best in class. - exec engagement. The exec team are very involved in the front line running of the business. you will never lack in support in customer engagements. = flexible. still small culture that is willing to be flexible to get stuff done. - innovative - the product is best in class but you can see the work happening to lead the market rather than react to it. in an industry of dinosaurs, ForeScout will not be left behind. - Culture. it's really good fun. work hard with optional play hard. you do not have to party all night to be valued - Diverse culture. Black, white, yellow, brown, straight, gay, not sure yet, man, women, animal. Everyone is welcome. Do a good job and you will be listened to an valued. Genuinely the first time in 20 years i've seen such a diverse culture and it's amazing. - people. hires best in class talent. - CEO. has the perfect vision for this company and is very credible

Cons

- it's really hard work! This is not for the feint hearted, if you want an easy ride go work for Check Point or Symantec. - Maturity. Systems, processes and governance are been broken to prepare for scale meaning you have to be work with the business. - workloads. caused by the right kind of problems (growth and scale) you may find yourself frequently with too much on your plate. the business will help you but you have to be prepared to go the extra mile.

Thank you for taking the time to leave such a thoughtful review. You're spot on that we have the best customers, innovative products and people. It is a work hard, play hard culture and we are working to be better at building processes to help us scale. It would be really valuable for you to share your ideas with your manager so we can continue working on ways to make ForeScout great. -MDC
