Pros

Its a fun and challenging place to work. Opportunities abound.

Cons

If you or your management aren't within senior managements "inner circle" or "favorites list" its hard to influence and make a difference. You may say that is typical corporate life. You would be right. BUT at Red Hat claims to be different based on the open source idea of "meritocracy: an elite group of people whose progress is based on ability and talent rather than on class privilege or wealth."

Pros

Nice people, opportunity are there to explore. Lots of young talent right. Open to new ideas on occasion. Good on site perks.

Cons

Low focus on processes and scaling to be larger. Although global, mindset is not. Compensation is lower than market so they need to level the population to keep associates in the near future.
