Pros

Great culture, incredibly smart people who love what they do and will take time to share their passion with you Easy to get your hands on a lot of different technologies

Cons

Disorganized Travel is going to be as close to 100% as they can manage, no matter what they promise you in the interview. Also, you often won't be notified of required travel until the Thursday or Friday before. If you're okay with that good luck, but burn out is high. You'll spend at least 40 hours a week working on client projects, plus extra time for internal projects and management. Counting travel time, be prepared to devote 60-70 hours a week every week.

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.
