Pros

If you want the opportunity to have an impact, work with a phenomenal team and to grow with a great company then Okta is the place for you. Customer success is part of our DNA and, in addition to great products, is our biggest differentiator. This is key to running a successful SaaS business--Okta has this nailed. Hard work, creativity and teamwork required in order to do well here.

Cons

Does not offer 401k matching yet.

Horrified at the changes this year

Pros

The pros were there but these past few months have diminished a lot of them

Cons

There has been a culture shift and people are quickly starting to look for an exit. HR is a nightmare. They are a group of bullies who seem to do whatever they want and are setting this company up for a huge lawsuit. I want this turned around ASAP. Something very bad is going to happen if things keep going the way they are going today. I am not referring to an isolated incident here. This is an established pattern now and it's going to blow up in our faces. I have been revolted by the business practices of our HR department for months now. And when that department is getting it wrong, we have huge problems. Current and former employees have a lot to say about this and there is a lot of discontent. Please don't mess this huge opportunity up. It would be such a waste.
