Pros

-> Diverse and feature-rich product offerings, huge scope to learn different Cyber-security and WLAN products - > Competitive work environment - > Amazing Health and Stock options for Employees - > FTS model

Cons

- > No Cab facility, No free food and No work-from-home option and most importantly no shift allowances for TAC folks - > Fortinet India management is very frugal in terms of passing on benefits to its employees - > Recruitment (HR) process is bit unfriendly and not accountable - never discussed about Shift Allowances and Cab facility during hiring process and keeps telling stories/bluffs a lot which is misleading for a new hire - > Folks in TAC are made to work straight 14 days per month in a stretch without Paid Offs, HR policies are NOT Employee friendly , very rigid and not in par with the current industry standards - > Higher management discriminates Engineering and TAC teams, gives preferential treatment to Engineering team and sub-standard treatment to TAC folks, instead they should treat everyone with due importance

Thank you for the review. With due respect to your opinion, I would strongly urge you to read and understand various employee policies. We do have a strong allowance policy for TAC employees. Also the food options are heavily subsidized . Our various HR policies are best in class comparing to the industry (leave/medical etc). We encourage open door policy and anyone from Sr Management is available for a discussion. Happy to clarify any questions you may have to alleviate all mis-conceptions which are not true!

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.
