Pros
There is nothing positive about Forescout. This was a team oriented, results driven company before private equity firm Advent acquired Forescout in 2020. Now it is a dumpster fire!
Cons
Advent has squeezed every penny from Forescout, including significantly cutting employee benefits in Jan 2022. There have been numerous layoffs and cutbacks affecting virtually every department. Advent has given preferential treatment to the incompetent staff it has brought in to the detriment of the existing employees, many of whom have thrived at Forescout for years. Needless to say, morale is terrible creating exceptionally high turnover across all departments.
