Pros

I've worked with Red Hat since they were formed and came back five years ago. Red Hat is the best employer on the planet, bar none. The staff care, the directors care, yes there are hiccups, expect them in any organisation. Add to the quality, don't detract and you will be fine. Be passionate and you will be rewarded, define what you want and follow that goal, even if that means you have to work hard and butt heads. It's a great organisation that I'm passionate about.

Cons

HR systems continue to evolve but EXPECT THAT it's a fast growing dynamic company and the HR staff that are there are trying their level best to try and evolve too to support you. Help them do it and see that everyone is running at 90 mph.

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.
