Pros

Good place to learn open-source and innovative technologies

Cons

Very diplomatic culture, since IBM has acquired it, IBM is making life of Red Hat employees miserable, every year they are doubling the targets and decreasing incentives. They have also forced Red Hat to stop hiring and started filling IBM people who are on IBM roles and working for and with Red Hat.

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.
