Pros

Diversity of work and exposure to open source products in many verticals. See how real customers struggle to integrate and implement what marketing and sales make seem "easy".

Cons

Consultant corporate culture more concerned with title, whining, and CYA. Probably one of the worse culture types where on the surface "one team", behind the scenes all risk management and blame gaming. In an environment where it's already difficult to deliver under optimal conditions you cannot trust your peers or managers here. No bueno. Oh yes, and the solutions are often not very well thought out.

Pros

RH has the right attitude about remote employees -- and it works very well for us. Maybe you've heard anti-remote ideas lately from other companies. They are living in the past. RH is the corporate face of open source. It's pretty easy for me to believe that what we're doing here actually matters. The people I've met here ( in 5 years ) are smart, easy to get along with, and a pleasure to work with. I realize this sounds a little like I'm seriously drinking the KoolAid. Well -- okay. I've had a lot of jobs in the last 20 years, and this is the first place I've really liked.

Cons

Being remote can get a little isolating -- a weird combination of always being in touch with everybody, and never seeing anybody.
