Pros

Great product with lots of innovation and I am fully remote

Cons

Great product that sells well and many smart sellers there, however if you haven’t been there for some time it will be very difficult to be promoted. Lots of shoulder tapping and “rules for thee, not for me”. After the acquisition of our largest competitor, there’s been c-level turnover and tel turnover — Okta has grown so quickly that it’s lost culture along the way. There’s so much noise going on all the time and you’re tasked many roles outside of your primary role.Lastly, Okta does not adjust base pay for inflation, market competitiveness, merit, etc.

Pros

Some people are very down to earth and make coming to the office worth it. Other than that, being an employee here nowadays is an absolute joke.

Cons

Peak toxicity coming from management. Most people here suck other than the few that are real people and not corporate “sherpa” robots. The company culture has grown more and more toxic as the days go on and product demand has slowed down. I would not work here unless it was absolutely life or death. STAY AWAY PLEASE. Go work for some AI startup or some founding role at a cool company that will value your skills and not just treat you as a number. Okta is not what Okta used to be.
