Could be worse, could be better
Pros
- 10 year employee and there are many more like me so there is an opportunity to have a long career. - Business travel is respectable if not generous - Some peers are competent and willing to help in any way. - My immediate manager is great - the platform is better than most - If you’re good, you can move around within the company but trying to move out of country is very hard. - Most customers know who Akamai is and the security products are attention getters
Cons
- The CEO needs to move on. Too much resides on his opinion, which right, wrong or indifferent, is what he wants not necessarily what’s best. - New product pipeline is thin - Very political - Senior leadership lacks diversity in many ways not just gender or race - Losing ground to too many competitors
