      Pros

      Easy to collaborate with teams, friendly associates throughout company Lots of outstanding technical people to get guidance and support from Company still has commitment to open source

      Cons

      Lots and lots of work and priorities Tight timelines with overloaded roadmap resulting in stressed out team Code isn't always adequately tested resulting in last minute bug fixes/releases Despite the "open" culture, management still seems fairly top-down

      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.
