Pros

There's some great teams with amazing culture and support. Benefits are overall solid Lots of internal pride and motivation to do the right thing

Cons

Evolving to become more like IBM, it's parent company. The recent layoffs (a first) are evidence of that plus the quote from the CEO on how layoffs are healthy in an interview. There will be a lot more change and a lot more restructuring. Whole programs are being sliced.

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.
