      Pros

      Salary and benefits are good but not a lot else.

      Cons

      Politics are getting quite bad. Especially as the old guard is getting ready to exit and the upcoming crew starts jockeying for position and stabbing each other in the back. If you're low enough on the food chain to avoid this great, otherwise watch your back. They talk about openness and meritocracy but don't actually practice it no matter how much they preach 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.
