Pros

Fortinet has solid products and strong brand recognition in the cybersecurity industry. The company is growing fast and has a good footprint in the market. There are some great people across departments, and it’s a place where you can learn a lot — especially if you’re early in your career.

Cons

Compensation for internal employees is extremely disappointing. Even after five years with the company and taking on significantly more responsibility, I was capped at a 20% raise for an internal promotion — which still didn’t bring me anywhere near market value. Making a base that’s under $105k as a Channel Account Manager in this industry and role is well below standard, especially considering the workload and expectations. Fortinet tends to reward external hires much more generously than those who grow internally. There’s little transparency or flexibility when it comes to adjusting pay for loyal employees. This results in high attrition and a sense that tenure and dedication are undervalued.
