Pros

Great culture and wlb. They really work hard to keep their high best place to work ratings because of which lot of employee friendly initiatives

Cons

Long term strategy and outlook for the business in question. A quick look at their stock prices will reflect this. They are in a make or break state in the business because of which many roles are closed overnight. Also lot of silent firing happening

Akamai is still learning to grow into the enterprise-level organization it strives to be. There are no major cons to share in effort to discourage someone from applying, but like most jobs, few are perfect.
