Pros

Akamai is a company that is constantly innovating, developing new products and feature sets. In the past 3-4 years it has also acquired several companies and integrated them into the organization. Good life/work balance. Training, training and more training, most everyone attends at least 1-2 trainings per week to stay current with the latest products. Overall, a great company to work for!

Cons

There used to be an option called Akamai Anywhere, which allowed employees to work remotely from anywhere and not hold a permanent space in a corporate location. This option was discontinued 2-3 years ago. There has been talent lost for whom otherwise would have stayed with the organization if this option were available.
