Pros

Technically strong colleagues. Flexible work locations.

Cons

The old boys club has a stranglehold on titles director and above. Good luck to you breaking in, they make their mind up first, and come up with reason later.

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.
