Pros

You get to borrow equipment to do more work at home so the company can also spy on you there too.

Cons

Where to begin other then toxic, greedy and untrusting. Dont kid yourself as this is a Chinese company with the same self-serving mentality. If you show any weakness like work/life balance or mental struggles they will fire you. Do yourself a favor and apply to Palo Alto Networks or another tech company that cares. Fortinet will offer you a shiny package and starter pay...work you like a donkey and just when you feel you are secure they will screw you and your family/futures.
