Pros

The company growth is the only Pros in EMEA from my point of view. US management should follow a bit more what is going on in EMEA

Cons

Incompetent EMEA sales management who got their role only because of some friendships, because they are not sales they are creating a very particular atmosphere that is not the reflect of US or countries atmosphere. Unfortunately these incompetent people are protected internally and will never move, but why moving when you are paid doing nothing!? Way too much admin and not enough sales, still want to think they are a startup, the world's biggest start up they say.

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.
