Pros

Talking about the people often sounds like a cliché, but most people here are truly awesome. Starting from Todd who is honest and kind, incredible smart and overall serves as a great example. A couple of people on his leadership team seem a bit Unapproachable, but all are outstanding and talented individuals. The product is great and speaks for itself. The day to day atmosphere is nice, the people (hr) team go an extra mile to offer little perks and treats.

Cons

Some parts of the review process are broken. Some individuals (very few I might add) seem a bit condescending and are not team players, but again I've only seen a couple of instances where that happens. Other than that, we are growing. This is not your 20 people start up anymore.. Comes with pros and cons. I for example wish I knew everyone in the company, but with hundreds of people this is clearly a challenge

Pros

A dynamic, fast-paced environment driven by top-tier talent and a deeply collaborative culture. The company successfully combines a high-growth startup mindset with agile execution, fostering continuous innovation and cross-functional support.

Cons

Like many publicly traded SaaS companies, Okta has aggressive revenue targets. Employees in sales, account management, and customer success frequently note that quotas are demanding, territories can change unexpectedly during annual restructuring, and pressure to expand accounts can lead to burnout.
