Pros

Co Founders Great products Great people Widely accepted in marketplace and crushing competition

Cons

Senior Sales Leadership - ruined culture and turned everyone into just a number. Could care less on what is right or makes sense. Totally driven by their Operations culture and metrics are all they care about. Revenue is secondary as long as they hit their lowered forecast. Just play games with the opportunities and manipulate them to their favor. Would rather pay people that did nothing on an opportunity than those that did the work. Killed the motivation and people still leaving in droves. President now forced out so maybe it will get better when the CRO also leaves.

Pros

Great Benefits. Fantastic product. Company is scaling (or at least trying to).

Cons

Management and company culture has grown toxic. Extremely political and dramatic. Specifically in sales, marketing, and the C-Suite. I wouldn’t recommend joining okta unless you are some type of director or above and also remote. SF just RTO’d and it’s been miserable.
