Pros

Love the people I work with (but a lot of top talent is leaving). Product is superior. Co-founders Todd and Freddy are awesome people.

Cons

40%-60% YoY growth expected with around 30% sales attrition leaves a huge workload on the ones still here in leadership roles to make up the gap. That’s neither fair nor sustainable. Pay is average but effort and results expected are industry leading. Equity pay is below expectations.

Pros

Great Benefits. Fantastic product. Company is scaling (or at least trying to).

Cons

Management and company culture has grown toxic. Extremely political and dramatic. Specifically in sales, marketing, and the C-Suite. I wouldn’t recommend joining okta unless you are some type of director or above and also remote. SF just RTO’d and it’s been miserable.
