Pros

- face paced - tons of internal mobility - low tolerance for non-performers - growing company

Cons

- not enough investment... doesn't match pace of growth - financial recognition and reward trails efforts - tendency to "squeeze too much blood out of the turnips" You can have work-life balance, but you have to insist on it.

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.
