Pros

In the last one year I met some of the best talented engineers. There is a lot of learning opportunities. No work timings. You get to choose your own work time. As long as you complete your work nobody cares. People are very supportive and there is lot of fun besides work. Managers are super nice. You get rewarded for your performance and you don’t have to ask for it.

Cons

The pay can be a bit better given the similar work in other companies. Initial some months can be overwhelming, although people are always there to help you but you get to ask first. This is a pro and con at the same time.

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.
