Exciting, Early Stages of Something Significant! - Finance Manager Forescout Technologies Employee Review

Pros

The corporate growth strategy has been clearly communicated to all employees. Input from the Finance & Accounting team is valued. I've been allowed the autonomy to structure my role to most effectively provide financial management planning and oversight to my business partners. Multiple opportunities exist to work on projects in line with my professional interests and development goals. My CFO and Finance SVP strongly believe in an “open door” policy which I’ve taken advantage of on numerous occasions. I have clear, mutually agreed, MBOs and I have regular 1-1 sessions with my manager. Senior management supported my request to work remotely due to family responsibilities and that has allowed me to remain a member of team Forescout!

Cons

Not sure it’s an accurate assessment to label as a “con”, as I view the following as a natural consequence of a company preparing for significant growth. This type of transition leads to challenges and even periods of frustration. For example, being part of a growth company will inevitably lead to prioritization conflicts in which regularly occurring tasks and ad hoc requests/assignments seem to converge at once. Some groups have had challenges achieving work/life balance at peak times. However, compared to other Bay Area companies which I've worked, the attribute setting Forescout apart is that the Finance & Accounting management team acknowledges the issue and has taken steps to alleviate some of the stress in the short term (very appreciative!) while continuing to drive more comprehensive solutions.

Great feedback. I sincerely appreciate and value the pros, cons and advice to management that you identified. You have my commitment to build upon the pros and to work harder to progress the points you raise in the cons and the advice to management, especially as it relates to extending our core value of One Team, so everyone has the ability to provide constructive input with their manager. - Criss
