Pros

Company pay is decent in sales. Company has a history of having a unique & supportive culture

Cons

F5 has changed a lot in the last 3 years. The rate of innovation is not what it had been in previous years, and they are struggling to find a a beach head with name recognition in terms of security and DNS products. They have very solid offerings in these areas, but they have not been able to get the brand recognition in these areas of other competitors. Some very bright minds have left in the last year.

Pros

* I enjoyed the collaborative team culture. Everyone was supportive and willing to help each other. * The work-life balance was good, and the overall working environment was relatively low stress. * I had opportunities to work on large-scale enterprise products and collaborate with cross-functional teams.

Cons

* One area I felt could be improved was compensation growth. As my responsibilities and technical skills expanded, I was looking for opportunities that offered stronger career and compensation progression.
