Pros

Some of the best coworkers you can ask for- lots of smart, passionate people. You have the freedom to work on projects that interest you

Cons

Antiquated view of giving raises that are all based on spectrums Leadership is completely disillusioned by the amount of burnout happening on the ground floor. Lots of change for the sake of change

Pros

Extremely talented and motivated people Great product and ecosystem around Kubernetes

Cons

Bluewashing is real. After 4 years past acquisition it is not Open Decision company anymore. There is no clear communication about the direction where the company goes, some departments were moved to IBM without clear explanation why. Promotion process that was clear before is gone, and now your salary increase or promotion are directly depend on your relationship with the manager and not from your contribution to the team or the product.
