      Pros

      People, people, and people. But the good ones dont stay long

      Cons

      Lower pay then average Quarterly layoffs, with a bad severance package. Bought linode(cloud) but the product is not ready to be sold. But management put 20k targets on it per person. Spend almost a billion usd buying API sec companies noname/neosec which only had 20 customers. Now they are pushing to make that money back, with a beta product No growth possibilities as they rather hire outsiders then promote

      Pros

      Work Life Balance Rewarding Work and Responsibilities Quality Benefits Stock Options & Compensation are competitive Continuing Education Reimbursement Diversity of the community

      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.
