Pros

Great place to get international experience. Most people are nice to work with and try to be helpful.

Cons

Very complex organization. Very few policies. People work a lot but get very little done. Takes multiple meetings with 10+ people to get the simplest decisions made. Take all the hype about the open culture with a grain of salt.

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.
