Pros

Great product, good sales momentum. Strong, intense sales-oriented organization. Support organization has expanded dramatically which has helped the company really be more responsive to customers. Company is growing, promoting women and minorities. Could be good or bad: There are a lot of Salesforce alumni, and they take their experiences as the gospel everyone should emulate.

Kontras

Company has little respect for education or experience. I believe that's because very few of the middle management have any management education, training or experience. It shows in their work (ill-thought out customer success processes, board presentations that have inaccurate figures, professional services contracts which can't pass audit and HR processes that are amateurish at best). Because they are ill-equipped to manage, and they know it, Managers/Directors in Support, Customer Success and Product are paranoid and have little regard for new ideas. They take any questioning/criticism as a personal affront even when they propose today's latest half-baked idea. Hires are not vetted very well and "hiring goals" take precedence over quality. It's more important that they meet their goals and bring in B and C level people to fill slots. If you work here, understand that rewards (like Hawaii trips and bonuses) are based on cronyism or arbitrarily on what the ruling clique decides. Be a sycophant and you will do well.

Pros

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

Kontras

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.
