Pros

Red Hat is constantly growing their products and integrating features enterprises care about. It is easy to be close to relevant technologies, get exposure in the industry, grow through training and collaborate with other business units. I can probably write a book on the different opportunities for personal and skill growth.

Cons

Promotions and recognition depend heavily on your people manager. Performance bias exists and some peers and those in management are quick to assume your skill level and expertise. Hard to find true mentors and there are not many advocates for newer consultants that go above and beyond with extraordinary performance. Finally, major lack of diversity in the consulting organization.

Pros

Extremely talented and motivated people Great product and ecosystem around Kubernetes

Cons

Bluewashing is real. After 4 years past acquisition it is not Open Decision company anymore. There is no clear communication about the direction where the company goes, some departments were moved to IBM without clear explanation why. Promotion process that was clear before is gone, and now your salary increase or promotion are directly depend on your relationship with the manager and not from your contribution to the team or the product.
