Pros

Red Hat is a fun, fast-paced and collaborative environment for people that want to make a difference in the world. The passion, innovation and energy of the teamwork are all absolutely extraordinary to be part of. This $2 billion open source software company is expanding to additional countries and markets at extremely high speeds and hiring the best-of-the-best. I feel lucky and blessed to be on the Red Hat team!!!

Cons

If you are not a team playing and do not love to collaborate with an open-decision making framework and meritocracy environment, you may face challenges. This company is growing extremely fast and therefore roles change quickly. You must be innovative and flexible. Red Hat encourages every associate to follow their passions, so it is important to communicate and continue to adapt, learn and overcome challenges quickly to ensure individual and over-all corporate strategies are met and surpassed.

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.
