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 has a high-energy collaborative sales culture with sales leadership that really cares about their people and promotes from within. In my 20+ months here I’ve seen a half dozen sales reps, including myself, earn promotions, and it’s a work hard/play hard culture that offers a nice work/life balance. The technology is world-class and the company is investing in all the right places with a goal of becoming the #1 cyber security company worldwide.

Cons

Like most high-tech sales organizations, there have been some organizational changes, and even though they're the right changes positioning the company for continued long-term success, there is a short-term adjustment period for everyone involved.

Pros

- Reasonable Salary, good benefits. - Work-Life balanced style. - No squeezing pressure and schedule. - VERY flexible and self-managed work hours ...(But also read in Con...).

Cons

- But, it's TOO flexible and self-managed work hours... thus difficult to find or gather people and teams during normal hours. - Lack of team works, and poor inter-teams communication and cooperation - Poor and fickle Management and Policy - Bad working cultures from China (Big-wok culture everywhere; Do more, wrong more... Do less, wrong less... So the best is do nothing then nothing wrong...)
