Red Hat reviews

Salary is dreadfully low. Almost all of management are drones that seem to forget where they came from as soon as they step into the role. The workload is enough for twice the number of employees they have. They hire at a snail's pace, and people leave twice as fast.

Everyone in Red Hat is duplicating some one else's work elsewhere in the company. - super weak leadership team - C-Suite has been at same company for the last 20 years so imagine the level of innovation (none) - CMO has been there forever ( what new practices can such a person bring to the table/ innovation zero) - Products are expensive and over engineered. No simplicity anywhere. - No growth for female execs or leaders - look at the C-Suite. All white men. - Company growth is stalling so all open roles are posted at a grade below with smaller salaries. For ex. You will be expected to do grade 5 work but with grade 4 pay. - No more upward mobility with layer of middle management all removed. So if you are an IC - chances of promotion into manager virtually zero. - If you are a manager - chances of moving up also zero. - Marketing is shrinking, only growth is in engineering. - All the teams are siloed and leaders hate each other so there is no comprehensive portfolio story to tell. - if you really truly are desperate for a job - then go for it. Otherwise I'd look at high growth companies that are better run. -Everyone who is currently in Red Hat is staying there because the market is rough.
