      Don't be Fooled - Anonymous employee Red Hat Employee Review

      Pros

      Salary is competitive, some benefits are generous

      Cons

      Management is poor and it's a very secretive society. They do not communicate important information with other department members. Be very careful if you are reaching an age considered "old". You will soon start receiving contrived reviews that will eventually warrant a Performance Improvement Plan (PIP) and dismissal from the company is 100% imminent no matter what your past reviews or company performance has been in the past.

      Pros

      - Good team culture and work-life balance if you have the right management chain - Remote work if you're not close to an office - Leadership transparency and willingness to hear feedback

      Cons

      - Constant re-orgs without strategy are destabilizing - Manager pool is very mixed in terms of experience and skill - Poor role definition can lead to surprises at quarterly review time - Layoffs/reductions have had a chilling effect - Lower salaries compared to competitors
