Pros

Hazelcast developers are amazing experts, you can learn a lot from them. The concentration of talent is simply incredible. You get to work on complex problems, the culture inside engineering is great.

Cons

The top management is running the company as if it was a large corporate. New rules & policies are imposed without sufficient reasoning provided. The engineering organization is very much merit-based, but the rest of the company overly relies on formal titles and top-down management.

Pros

Great engineers with various backgrounds. You’re contributing to an open source software as your daily job and you get paid for it.

Cons

The US wing of the company thinks that they are the true owner of the company and assumes the engineering department as an outsourcing part of it. Executives do not care about what engineers think, what they complain about, or what they suggest. Which ends up with an US office saying “we’re in a great position!!!” where all good engineers with know-how leave the company recently. Yes, it was a great company with great engineering culture, until the late 2020. Then, whatsoever happened, things started being worse every single day. So, if you’re outside of the US and thinking to work at Hazelcast, think once more as the US office will hire you as cheap-labor and will never respect your opinions.
