Pros

We became part of Fortinet after the company we worked for got acquired by them. It's now close to 2 years since the acquisition. - We have never felt under any undue stress or pressure just because we got acquired. - The roadmap was defined properly with assurance that there will not be any firing. - Very good work environment. - Good leave policy and leaves granted whenever requested for. - Pretty Decent appraisals. - Bonus payouts for engineering teams every quarter - Stocks provided with appraisals ( atleast until now) - Good insurance coverage which includes parents.

Cons

- Very poor administration team leading to mediocre quality food being supplied by contractors who bid the lowest amount. - HR team also needs to improve a lot in their interaction with employees ( Seems to be changing of late but a long way to go) - No firing policy means that even people who don't work that much are comfortable with what they do causing unwanted workload on few people within each team.

Pros

- On target OTE and uncapped commissions - Great overall work culture - A lot of cool Field marketing events - Ability to expense dinners, entertainment, gifts for clients - Great company vision and a broad security fabric portfolio with several third party validations for a well-known cybersecurity brand makes it easy to sell and be successful.

Cons

- New business quotas are the same for every seller at least on my team, who all have very different territories, some with more white space heavy accounts that can be much more challenging to hit quota compared to other territories. Quotas went up by 20% from previous year. - Too many internal systems to navigate - processes and sales enablement tools could be more efficient - You can be the top performer in your US sales segment, and still not make it to President's Club because of the way it's structured - competing against different segments and only top 3-4% get to go each year. Rewarding top performers in general is an area needing improvement in my opinion.
