Pros

A decent company when looking from outside.

Cons

You will feel like you are in a hell, if you're not from china or if you don't know Mandarin. Most of the positive reviews you see here are coming from Chinese employees (if fact they are right, because the company is very comfortable if you're Chinese). Favoritism, poor company culture, many employees don't speak in English.

Pros

Learned a great deal about the channel, sales, network security space. Have met some really smart folks along the way.

Cons

Awful, awful communication between management and their employees, teams, partners, etc. Pay is no longer competitive with industry. Fortigates can only carry this company for so long.
