Business Outlook
Pros
There are a lot of smart people, and Akamai touches every part of the internet throughout the world. Some interesting problems to be solved that some engineers get to address
Cons
Processes are stuck in the past. Deployment models are stuck in 2005. They pulled back on internal development and innovation before pandemic. It is more a sales-driven organization than engineering-driven. Too focused on quarterly numbers since being pestered by Elliot Management a few years ago.
