Pros

I would recommend working at Akamai because it is one of the most interesting companies in the tech sector right now. Those are my views: - Bleeding edge technolies and products - Runs at the heart of the internet, most companies for which doing businesses online use it - The company has just the right size, about 2000 employees and management is very responsable and accesible - Challenging environment - Faithful to its original principles and deep values, very inline with its founders - Financially very stable - Salary is inline with the tech sector or even a bit above it

Cons

I have no regrets to outline

good place to work. Engineering is full of great talent and great people.

Cons

Really not much here. ParaTechnical roles such as product architects may slow things down and do make bad decisions often.
