Pros

Good work culture, friendly team and good compensation. This is a perfect place to learn and build career on team management and how to collaborate. Provided, you are lucky enough to be working with a focused and disciplined leader or team lead or Manager.

Cons

Management keeps changing, global team not focused on employee support and what is missing that can make ones life easier and help company grow in a particular geography. Once people climb the ladder they tend to forget good deeds and team efforts that existed .

Pros

When I joined Red hat couple of years back I was excited to learn emerging technologies. But the opensource culture is fading out.

Cons

The top management lacks technical knowledge of redhat products and opensource`culture. The transparency of information is fading out. The decision making is on hands of couple of political souls...The growth opportunity is available for only those people who employing all his arts to cajole to the boss rather than who deserves..The leadership team encourages to procure commercialized tools without thorough evaluation of in-house tools.
