Pros

I think upper management is pretty straightforward and open. If you like working with very smart and talented people, they are here. If you want the kind of opportunities that become available from rapid growth, they are here. If you need something, you can get it if you make your case. If you like seeing a problem, suggesting a solution, and given the freedom to implement it, this place if for you. Not a lot of politics as far as I can tell.

Cons

Inter-division visibility and collaboration is a huge challenge. Culturally, it is a little bit bland. It is tough to find the information you need when you need it. The email firehose.

Pros

Some people are very down to earth and make coming to the office worth it. Other than that, being an employee here nowadays is an absolute joke.

Cons

Peak toxicity coming from management. Most people here suck other than the few that are real people and not corporate “sherpa” robots. The company culture has grown more and more toxic as the days go on and product demand has slowed down. I would not work here unless it was absolutely life or death. STAY AWAY PLEASE. Go work for some AI startup or some founding role at a cool company that will value your skills and not just treat you as a number. Okta is not what Okta used to be.
