Pros

Pay is great, benefits are great -- really makes you want to overlook the terrible culture.

Cons

I find that Okta is more concerned with being the next Salesforce than with the mental well-being and concern for its people. The way I've heard management speak about their employees is discouraging. Micromanaging is also a rampant part of culture here. Burnout is abundant.

Pros

Great Benefits. Fantastic product. Company is scaling (or at least trying to).

Cons

Management and company culture has grown toxic. Extremely political and dramatic. Specifically in sales, marketing, and the C-Suite. I wouldn’t recommend joining okta unless you are some type of director or above and also remote. SF just RTO’d and it’s been miserable.
