Pros

Company remains very work from home friendly.

Cons

Where do I begin. This company was once great with an amazing culture and it has done a complete 180 in the last 6-9 months. Questionable hires in the executive suite have led to chaos and confusion, meanwhile the company is seeing revenues shrink quarter after quarter. Instead of addressing this, the company chooses to focus on political causes than alienate 50% of the employee base. The open culture is sadly now a thing of the past. Decisions are made with little to no input and NO regard for employee satisfaction or progression. Selling point used to be that we had an amazing culture thus we could pay less than our competitors. Now, we have the same poor culture AND are under compensated. AND everyone took a hit on their bonus because of ineffective leadership.

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.
