Pros

The pay rate and quarterly bonuses are on par with lots of the best tech companies. PTO rates are pretty standard or a little better than most. They offer several professional growth and learning opportunities through programs created to progress associates in their careers.

Cons

The culture is stifling. Some thrive in it while others flounder. Hard to find a happy medium. The description some people give it as a wild, wild west environment is pretty accurate. If you can tolerate the push to progress while not actually being offered solid opportunities to grow, you'll last a while. If you actually want growth, you might find yourself frustrated.

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.
