Pros

Leader in a fast-emerging space. Tons of opportunity for personal career growth and a legitimate opportunity to help build the next great tech company. Smart, dedicated coworkers. Efforts are recognized and rewarded. Competitive salary, with quarterly bonuses and stock options.

Cons

You will work your ___ off here, so if you are not prepared for some long hours and hard work, this is not the place for you.

We recognize the Okta team works hard, and because of that we have become the leader in the identity management space. We appreciate all you did and continue to do to drive the company forward.

Pros

People are super friendly. Company meetings are energetic. The perks are the best I have seen at any hi tech company that I have worked at (over 5 hi tech companies). Everyone works on MacBook Airs. Great location near the SF Ballpark. Lunch 3 times per week. My department head and team are open to new ideas in how to get work done and is very collaborative. We seem to have hired over 150 employees in the past year and the excitment you can feel internally.

Cons

Since I am new to the company, not to many downsides yet, I am in my honeymoon period but so far I am very impressed.

Pros

Energetic environment that encourages innovation and input. Leadership that is focused and transparent. A product you are proud to build and support. Continual improvements as needs arise.

Cons

Business is growing so quickly that at times we all get double/triple booked. A great problem to have.

We get frustrated juggling calendars too. But as you said, it’s a good problem to have.
