Pros

If you are a corporate drone it's great to work here. You won't be asked to do anything for months or years at a time and still be paid.

Cons

Unfortunately, as soon as you disagree or have some opposing views with management, you will soon find yourself PIP'ed or worse, if you are an international employee, they will withhold your H1B or purposefully tamper with the submission status.

Inside Sales at Fortinet

Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

Good products - specifically Next Generation Firewall and SASE.

Cons

Toxic leadership - if you are an Inside Sales rep, you have to create a weekly report of all the activity you did over the course of the week (quotes you built; what you covered in your 1:1's with your field reps; what education/learning opportunities you've been exploring, etc). It's the highest level of micro-management I've ever seen in my professional career.
