      Smart people, rocket ship growth, but slowed by consensus culture

      Pros

      Red Hat was one of the most energizing environments I’ve worked in. The caliber of talent is exceptional, truly some of the smartest, most capable colleagues you’ll ever meet. The culture rewards merit and impact, and during high-growth phases it felt like being on a rocket ship with endless opportunities to learn, stretch, and advance.

      Cons

      Decision-making could be slow. The consensus-driven culture meant that getting alignment often required input from many stakeholders, which sometimes created bottlenecks and slowed momentum.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Great culture and people. Lots of flexibility with remote work opportunities.

      Cons

      Benefits are mid compared to other tech companies. Most of the company is on the lower range of the market-based salary ranges.

      Best company I've worked for

      Program manager - hr
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      All the people I've worked with are kind and willing to help. The leaders are humans and not untouchable. You feel you are in a safe space. There are many internal programs to support associates in their journey with the company. The benefits are very good compared to others in the industry.

      Cons

      Because of the culture of openness, sometimes you have to go through many thoughts and opinions before getting the answer, it can lengthen the process but you are never penalised for moving slow because of this.
