      Pros

      An Open environment with open minds I had been working at IBM's server help desk when Red Hat approached me due to my advocacy of Linux at IBM from 1998 to 2009. (I wrote a book on Linux while at IBM). Red Hat moved me from help desk to product manager and gave me the support and training to become a success, I never looked back ... As an African-American Navy Vet over 50, Red Hat never held me back but only gave me the room and tools to get ahead. I will always be thankful to the management teams at both IBM and Red Hat (now a joined team).

      Cons

      Westford, MA is COLD!!!! (smile), did not want to move to Wetsford, MA.

      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.
