Pros

- Amazing people - smart, friendly, dedicated to helping Fortinet succeed - Lots of social clubs/interest groups where you can socialize and meet new people who share similar interests - Good comp plan that includes stock - Generous benefits plan that includes a healthcare spending account and lifestyle spending account - and RRSP matching - Good work/life balance but Fortinet does offer dinner if I need to stay late to work overtime - Being a big company, there are lots of opportunity to move around, grow and do different things - Proud to be working for a company that's providing innovative network and cyber security solutions to protect people

Cons

- Could be a bit more regular communication from senior management on product direction, sales etc. - although quarterly All-hands meetings do provide insight into those areas
