I've found that the talent and simply the quality of people Okta attracts is unprecedented. The leadership at Okta truly makes an effort to pave a path of development and growth if that's what you're looking for. Really a great place to grow your career and learn from the best in the industry.
Cons
Okta has more of a buttoned-up culture. Not to say we don't have a great time getting to know our colleagues with side events, but it's definitely not a priority at Okta.
Okta Response
11y
Formality across the groups at Okta varies. Identity Management is a serious issue, and customers deserve a high level of professionalism from us. That said, we dress comfortably, vigorously celebrate Hawaiian Shirt Friday and enjoy our ping-pong tournaments and office happy hours.
Good company benefits - private healthcare, employee stock purchase programme
Annual sales kickoff
Cons
All calls & emails are now monitored.
Graded & tracked on your calls.
New requirement is now to have 50+ calls a month recorded in Gong (Gong was previously phased out but now a requirement).
Pay rises are low, false promises each year of promotions & generous pay rises
Team members favoured over others
Work life balance now near on impossible with all the new asks put in place
