Pros

Fortinet is an excellent company to work for as they have a fantastic product to sell. They are a top company who are leading the market and have a strong brand.

Cons

BDR management in Reading is terrible. The behaviour is manipulative, vindictive fashion which causes all the team members to have low moral. The team is micro-managed in a dictatorial way. Many team members are considering leaving Fortinet as a result; this is a real shame as it is a superb company.

Pros

- It "used to be" work life balance - great manager(only works if you work for the right guy)

Cons

- It used to be a visa-friendly, all of a sudden, the company decides to review everyone's visa extension without any further transparent notice. - Pay is way more lower than industry average. - It varies depends on team. Follow the right boss, you will be in heaven. Follow the wrong boss, you will enjoy "Chinese 996 management" - Old technical skillsets Don't come.
