Red Hat reviews

- Really bad senior management (especially in bangalore). They care only the people they like and insult everybody else. Some people enjoy by doing nothing since they have the blessings of the senior. - Promotions/hikes will be based how much the manager likes you instead of what work you have done. - Beware of the terms 'upstream first' and 'open source'. Some senior people think having the repository in github makes the project open source(no public announcements, no documentation, no community). The developer is not allowed to about it public. This totally opposite of what Red Hat claims to be. - Useless side projects will get more attention(from management) than a mainstream project. - HR is only name shake, they don't know people's problems.

Political Old guards or "connected" rule Bad behavior seems to get many promoted Very spin focused culture lacking substance Open source behavior is not happening consistently Underpays significantly and does not pay more as they quadruple your work - no regular evaluations based on continued expansion of responsibilities (this may also happen while you watch the person next to you do nothing) Very difficult to attain work life balance - all depends on your manager - 90% are not supportive of this Fast paced to the point of chaos Too much shifting priorities/roles; job can end at any moment where someone makes up a new one for you or you disappear Many managers lack professionalism and basic collegial respect to peers and underlings High drama
