Pros

Compensation is good. Respect of the company is positive. Industry leading technology in several areas.

Cons

IBM making changes to corporate culture. RH employees being eliminated in favor of their IBM counterparts. I suspect this will happen to other acquisitions like Hashicorp. Customers do not like IBM sales teams as much as RH sales teams. IBM sales teams not as familiar with RH software and technology as RH employees.
