      Pros

      Great mix of technologies, relevant to cloud services. Good work-life balance. Good people in engineering.

      Cons

      Too much big corp stuff has crept in. We've moved away from engineering-oriented to sales-oriented. Too much focus on DEI, it feels forced and fake at times.

      Cons

      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.
