Pros
-Cybersecurity: Which in itself is the fastest growing sector in IT. -Aggressive Growth: Globally ~5000 strong, Canada wide ~1000+ and in Burnaby specifically ~700 employees with 2 big buildings that the company owns on Still Creek Drive. Already one of the world's leader in Security with over 310K clients under it's belt. -Location: Working for a big employer, right in Vancouver area is a big plus in my opinion. It is Fortinet's biggest R7D center globally and is critical to it's operations. Most of the top selling and key products are developed here. -Growth: Have seen people who joined at junior position climb up the ladder to team leads/senior members in a few years. As long as you perform well, the company would reward that. -Amazing infrastructure: World class facilities. -Convenient location: Close to Gilmore station. -Competitive compensation + stocks + benefits. -Job security.
Cons
Lacks diversity in workforce. But there has been a tremendous improvement on that front in the last couple of years and heading to a more dynamic work environment.
