Pros

30 days of paid vacation double-paid overtimes with an extra-day off monthly coffee box good managers salary is not low and not high I know many people closely here and there. I can't understand why people think they are paid 'waaay high' in the comments here

Cons

very tiring and stressful environment bad director but good managers there are too many conditions to get bonuses, stocks, etc.. if you dont agree with a decent salary in the beginning, you may not get any bonus in the end tens of people on higher positions distract you by telling 'how great place' it is to get you dizzy and dull on a daily basis. No one has their first job here. Let people to evaluate themselves. you clever guys I recommend you not to trust anyone here. Not at all

Pros

Good salary, stock options if you are lucky one

Cons

Bad management, little to zero diversity and inclusion, bad top HR management, not open to change, old school thinking. Language of Vancouver office where there are more than k800 employs is Mandarin, not English, so does who do not speak it are left out and mismanaged and many times not part of promotions.

Pros

Fortinet is a great company to work for in many ways. They have excellent products that just work when you introduce them to the network. Best in class security and has a great customer support team. Product training is great and through. You never stop learning and can go as deep and wide as you want to as an individual. Great team support from SE's to marketing to BDM's helping you grow your pipeline. management is excellent and is very involved in the business. A great working environment in the NYC Office.

Cons

The company needs better exposure out in the world. It's getting better but is constantly compared to Palo Alto which is not always fair since Fortinet has so many more products and features than Palo/Checkpoint /Fireeye and others. Health insurance could be better.
