Pros

Some really amazing people have joined the business over the years and it has been a pleasure to work with them. Great to have them in your network.

Cons

Where to start!!!! Siloed organisational structure and completely toxic and political organisation brings out the worst in all people. If you are a salesperson thinking about joining - think long and hard. The slide deck and the solution look great, but the internal dynamics are not worth it. Furthermore, when you consistently see top sellers who are exceeding quotas and probably making decent dollars exit the business that is a clear sign of where things are at! Investment in cultural change seems to be underway but the general consensus among most employees is the business will continue to not execute and will remain dysfunctional at it's core. The core product itself is table stakes performance wise, all of the peripheral modules and solutions are padding the investor slide deck.

We take employee feedback seriously and solicit it throughout the year via round tables, 1:1 conversations, anonymous surveys and reviews such as this one. As a direct result of feedback from our GTM team, we've created working groups designed to break down silos and promote cross-team collaboration, among other initiatives. We remain committed to making Forter a great place to work for everyone and we appreciate your feedback.

Pros

Great company culture in office in nyc, we have other offices around the world but can't speak much on those, there is a great emphasis on culture, no toxicity at all from what I've seen. Great benefits, half day Fridays every week in the US. Upper management is extremely transparent on how the company is doing with frequent all-hands meetings to share big picture progress.

Cons

Not many cons so far.
