Pros

Things move extremely slow. Innovation is killed by narcissist executive leaders that have no clue about what to do. This company has non-stop meetings where people don't make any decisions. So, even if you want to do your job you can't make any progress! So, do OE and use the meetings excuse to not accomplish anything and cash your check!

Cons

Toxic culture Toxic management Lots of politics Lacks of direction

Pros

A dynamic, fast-paced environment driven by top-tier talent and a deeply collaborative culture. The company successfully combines a high-growth startup mindset with agile execution, fostering continuous innovation and cross-functional support.

Cons

Like many publicly traded SaaS companies, Okta has aggressive revenue targets. Employees in sales, account management, and customer success frequently note that quotas are demanding, territories can change unexpectedly during annual restructuring, and pressure to expand accounts can lead to burnout.

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.
