Pros

- Culture, team's freedom, learning and growing opportunities, stability, people, management. - Company does follow its beliefs and values (not perfectly, but it definitely doesn't only says what it says because everybody is saying or because it's trendy) - You always gonna have our voice heard.

Cons

- Considerably lower than the average salary considering positions with similar level of knowledge/responsibility, however (in my opinion) is totally balanced for the pros. - There is not much standards within the company, each team has it's own world and do things in its own way (it has been improving). - The fact everybody is always heard, may be annoying and make things advance slowly (always a discussion on every single details sometimes)

Startup feel with corporate benefits

Pros

A few months in and here are my observations: Competitive salaries, great health benefits, generous PTO and "Recharge Days" to log off for mental health. As a remote employee, I still feel a sense of inclusion and camaraderie that employees care about each other. There is a great culture of willingness to help, but also be transparent and honest with feedback when asked. They maintain their own culture even after the IBM acquisition over one year ago. It feels like I'm working at a startup again but with all the added benefits of corporate life. It's a great balance for me.

Cons

In my role there can be meeting overload and burnout, but I'm not sure if that's a Red Hat con, or a COVID-related con.
