Pros

Great Culture, terrific CEO, interesting portfolio of products that are relevant to IT transformations

Cons

Engineering and Open Source centric... meaning not a sales/marketing centric culture. Leadership talks the talk, but won't walk the walk to get deals done unless its a complete off-the-shelf solution. This is VERY difficult for reps that cover accounts in the West... tech companies that are moving fast, in markets that are growing fast. Red Hat is geared towards conventional Enterprise companies, which are more concentrated in the East.

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.
