Low Compensation as Compared to Tech Giants Team Politics Politics are there in very Teams. Upper Management supports my Just Manager a lot that all feedback against her went to deaf ears. The team got nearly emptied and still, s(he) is not fired or transferred.

Pros

Extremely talented and motivated people Great product and ecosystem around Kubernetes

Cons

Bluewashing is real. After 4 years past acquisition it is not Open Decision company anymore. There is no clear communication about the direction where the company goes, some departments were moved to IBM without clear explanation why. Promotion process that was clear before is gone, and now your salary increase or promotion are directly depend on your relationship with the manager and not from your contribution to the team or the product.
