      "Nice Resume"

      Anonymous employee

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Having Red Hat on your job resume.

      Cons

      The management especially within IT are so out of touch with their employees. They pretend to care about development with things like "Compass", but nothing ever comes from it. In fact, the managers just push through it for HR. Expect to keep the pay you get when you first start. There aren't a lot of opportunities for advancement and most of IT will throw you under the bus to make themselves look better. The CEO is also out of touch.

      Not as innovative as they think

      Pros

      Good customers, mostly good folk.

      Cons

      Zealots, not ready to sell any deeper into the enterprise. They take criticism poorly. Hire experienced people, then expect you to sit at a bottom rung until you reach their ideal.
