Pros

* You can really learn a lot about linux here. And mastering Linux opens a lot of doors for future. * Most engineers here are very friendly, experienced and very resourceful. * Great life and work balance. Flexible working hours.

Cons

* Traditional development management style and release cycle (this could be good or bad depends on your own opinion) * Not enough training opportunities here, includes RedHat's own RHCE class (not enough class offered)
