      Pros

      Great product, fantastic CEO Okta destroys the competition technically head to head Most of the SE's are solid Okta is on a mission to become the next great technology company and it's well on its way

      Cons

      Okta is a sales grind and the pressure never lets up from the sales executive team. Very tough environment, not for the shy or weak. You will feel like a punching bag after sales forecast and QBR meetings. Account assignments make no sense and they are flooding the field with more sales reps. A very corporate office environment, with little joy or startup culture. You are there to work and that's it. Very silo'd company which has a hard time enjoying it's success

      Pros

      The company is growing quarter over quarter and seeing monstrous growth. The Culture is progressive and everyone seems to be incredibly passionate about the IT problems our company is fixing. We have all the great perks anyone could ask for and then some. My favorite "value" of ours is transparency. With our hyper-growth, it's crucial to have an organization who believes so strongly in being transparent with every single employee and stake-holder about what we're doing as a company, and how our success/roadblocks.

      Cons

      With hyper-growth, comes aggressive organizational momentum. Adapt fast and enjoy the ride!

      Pros

      The space is interesting and customers typically struggle with IAM solutions. Okta has a nice platform to handle SaaS based IAM for cloud apps.

      Cons

      Okta flooded the field sales force. Revenue expectations were unreasonable. Contracting issues with certain verticals (Healthcare). The product had limitations with broad scale deployments.
