Pros

- Amazing people - smart, friendly, dedicated to helping Fortinet succeed - Lots of social clubs/interest groups where you can socialize and meet new people who share similar interests - Good comp plan that includes stock - Generous benefits plan that includes a healthcare spending account and lifestyle spending account - and RRSP matching - Good work/life balance but Fortinet does offer dinner if I need to stay late to work overtime - Being a big company, there are lots of opportunity to move around, grow and do different things - Proud to be working for a company that's providing innovative network and cyber security solutions to protect people

Cons

- Could be a bit more regular communication from senior management on product direction, sales etc. - although quarterly All-hands meetings do provide insight into those areas

Pros

I joined Fortinet few years ago and over the course of time, I was able to contribute and the hard work was recognized by my Seniors. My efforts were recognition and rewarded both in terms of career growth and appraisals. I find it quite exciting to be a part of the Fortinet brand as the company is well placed in the market and poised for growth. Work peaks up at times and it's challenging but it is also interesting and offers learning opportunities and when you contribute, you would have a sense of accomplishment. Leaders in our group support us and you always have the opportunity to take on something new. Management supports hiring new grads and growing their talent which is a great platform to bring new ideas and innovate that will help in our growth. There has been significant progress in improving the culture and teams are more diverse than it used to be which is great and employees are enjoying socializing, participating in events throughout the year, interest clubs are wonderful and onsite gym facilities and training is an asset.

Cons

Managers in technical teams need to engage more with team members, do more one to ones and offer them new opportunities at work.
