Okta reviews

Most of the people in Engineering are smart, talented and hard working. At the same time, egos are at a minimum and good ideas are always appreciated. I like that most of the Engineering managers are quite technical and very approachable right up to the CTO. Unlike the typical enterprise company, we are very fast-paced and believe in continuous delivery. Product management works very well with development to implement and release features. Okta is a great place for career growth, where the company believes in promoting from within. As a person at a relatively early stage of my career, Okta has been a great place for me personally to be mentored by some really awesome engineers and given a high level of responsibility. From a bigger company perspective, Okta believes in transparency and everyone imbibes this value. Our weekly all-hands hosted by our CEO/COO gives us a perspective into what is happening in other areas of the company like sales, marketing and other executive updates. The business is doing well and spreading across the globe and I see us growing really fast in the next couple of years. We have a lot of fun as well with a soccer team, themed happy hours(kegs on all floors), ping pong, Fancy Fridays etc.

- Strong engineering team - Goo product with a lot of market demand - Room to have impact on a successful company - Opportunity to solve hard problems - Good compensation/benefits - Still Pre-IPO - Management that cares about career path for employees both on management path or as individual contributer
