Pros

It's a job and they are hiring. The reason they hire is there is a lot of employee turnover.

Cons

Was slow in paying commissions. Lack of customer support.

Pros

Strong products, Gartner group rating and industry growth

Cons

Too many appliance based solutions in an industry that is moving in a different direction. Very poor senior management with little to no direction or communication. Insufficient channel partners/programs to scale to desire goals.

Pros

Fortinet catches a good timing in introducing gateway based antivirus solution and introducing unified threat management system. It is good to work for Xie's brothers for one year and then you should consider to leave.

Cons

The management, especially, Ken Xie and Michael Xie would promise you lots of things when you are just hired, but finally nothing can be realized. This is a family company and lots of friends and family members of the Ken Xie, Michael Xie and Chairman David Tsang are key employees of this company.
