Really good role, lonesome person handling entire location hiring and was responsible for building the storage unit for Red Hat in India.

Salary is not paid according to the market standards, no market correction is done so far. No Retention strategy.

Pros

Open source culture is great, you get to participate (not just assist) to many conferences and meetups.

Cons

Very hard to innovate, very hard to change how things work, middle management and upper management values and goals are greatly unsynched. You have to be lucky to get in a sane working environment. New hires don't care about the open source culture, and push the company towards closed source practices.

Pros

Open transparent org. Open communication. Heavy internal promotion. Remote work OK. Sharing culture core part of corp values.

Cons

Sometimes 20 groups all working on same thing but not together, resulting in multiple implementations most of which won't work.
