Pros

1. Very good work culture than that of other Organizations 2. You will learn alot in very less time 3. Certifications <=== Red Hat Sponsored! 4. Unlimited Access to Red Hat Product Stack, Documentation, Knowledge Base, Internal Lists and many more. 5. You will feel confident due to communication with very high Customer Circle and Technically advanced.

Cons

1. The Management : This is really bad. You were initially able to select the domain in which you wanted to work in, now, it's allocated by the Management. You can not transit yourself in another domain of your interest. 2. Salary : Don't ask for Salary Hike, if you will ask, it will be denied or unexpected reasons will be given for NACK on Salary hike. 3. Employee : Want leaves! Manager : What about NO? 4. Work Pressure: They hire less technical people nowadays, don't know why. I see many technical people getting rejected but average getting selected which results into high work pressure on those who has expertise in a particular domain.

Pros

Extremely talented and motivated people Great product and ecosystem around Kubernetes

Cons

Bluewashing is real. After 4 years past acquisition it is not Open Decision company anymore. There is no clear communication about the direction where the company goes, some departments were moved to IBM without clear explanation why. Promotion process that was clear before is gone, and now your salary increase or promotion are directly depend on your relationship with the manager and not from your contribution to the team or the product.
