      Pros

      Work life balance is very good, technology is rock solid and customer support is best in the business.

      Cons

      Culture. The culture used to be very "Opensource" and some what laid back, fun and you could express what you felt whenever you wanted. Really had to explain, but it made people work even harder. Now, Red Hat is turning into an IBM, Oracle, MS.....big IT company culture which is sad but has to happen being a publicly traded company. Bringing in so many ex-"Big company IT" into management has really ruined the OpenSource culture that made Red Hat what it is today. CompPlans are also reflecting those of IBM, Oracle, MS.

      Pros

      You won't find many companies like this. The culture is one that allows you to grow and do that things you are truly passionate about. You create your own path, your own career and all the resources are in place to get you there. Whether it is your first company out of college or your 5th company as an industry veteran, you'll find all you're looking for here.

      Cons

      Nothing is handed to you. Work for what you want. The culture here doesn't deal with politics and for good reason.. the best idea and people win.
