Pros

Low attrition in the teams that I worked for. So familiar and really smart people to work with. Cutting Edge technology and really cool customers to work with Hybrid role, allowed an individual to almost function like an entrepreneur. The culture.. The best I have come across thus far.

Cons

Salaries may be slightly less than some of the other companies in the market. The company is growing, so they need to find a balance between remaining a start-up and scaling like a big organisation.

Akamai is still learning to grow into the enterprise-level organization it strives to be. There are no major cons to share in effort to discourage someone from applying, but like most jobs, few are perfect.
