Pros

Forter has created a very special place where you have the freedom and support to do your best work, surrounded by smart and supportive people. The founders and executive leadership team are visible and accessible - they answer employee questions every month on our company all-hands meeting and can often be seen supporting sales on pitches and at company happy hours. The introduction of 4.5 days a week started as an experiment and has become a permanent benefit, and frequent company social events, thoughtful employee gifts, and an incredibly proactive people operations team are great advantages of working here. The marketing team has grown significantly since I joined over two years ago, and having the opportunity to work with our experienced and supportive CMO and incredibly talented creative team are two of my favourite parts of my job. There are great opportunities to build and progress your career at Forter, with constant opportunities to tackle new challenges, take on new responsibilities, and work with smart colleagues and innovative, globally recognisable customers.

Cons

Forter is a fast-moving SaaS company - things evolve quickly - new products, new team members, and (depending on which team you are in) your role may also grow and change, and that's not everybody's cup of tea, especially if you haven't worked in a similar environment before. At Forter you get a lot of responsibility, but the hierarchical structure is very flat, which means you have to be highly collaborative and be able to work effectively across stakeholders and different teams, and that's also something that many people might not find comfortable or enjoyable. For those that thrive in this fast-paced environment, Forter might end up being the best company you've ever worked at.

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.
