WFH. Work life balance. Legacy Red Hatters maintain good culture

IBM has taken over, creating hostility, sinking morale and consistent fear of losing your job! Customers on average dont like IBM so that negatively impacts RH by association

Pros

Extremely talented and motivated people Great product and ecosystem around Kubernetes

Cons

Bluewashing is real. After 4 years past acquisition it is not Open Decision company anymore. There is no clear communication about the direction where the company goes, some departments were moved to IBM without clear explanation why. Promotion process that was clear before is gone, and now your salary increase or promotion are directly depend on your relationship with the manager and not from your contribution to the team or the product.
