Pros

Great Culture, terrific CEO, interesting portfolio of products that are relevant to IT transformations

Cons

Engineering and Open Source centric... meaning not a sales/marketing centric culture. Leadership talks the talk, but won't walk the walk to get deals done unless its a complete off-the-shelf solution. This is VERY difficult for reps that cover accounts in the West... tech companies that are moving fast, in markets that are growing fast. Red Hat is geared towards conventional Enterprise companies, which are more concentrated in the East.

Pros

Snacks, Stickers, decent benefits, free parking

Cons

senior management has no respect for my role and does not understand my value. Refuses to give clear guidance on how to improve my performance to get an increased bonus. Unable to get promoted even after meeting all requirements. There is this promotion that they are open and transparent but its all a facade.
