Pros

Fortinet is a family where you happen to work, do your best and always find a tip to improve. As a fast growing company, there are several career paths so people can grow and improve their careers and focus in performance. This is not only available, but encouraged by managers. The engineering work dynamics is by far, the most challenging and rewarding of all IT Security Industry, where you can not only perform your role, but write new roles if aligned with the company targets.

Cons

Intense, passionate and demanding work, normally creates family cracks that must be addressed properly. Even if family-job balance is encouraged by managers, I think this topic is unavoidable in the industry, due to the nature and impact of IT Security everywhere, at every time.

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.
