Pros

You get a pay check

Cons

There is no room for advancement, no one truly knows what is going on and everyone lives in fear of losing their job. Leadership have no experience and can not drive a company let alone manage people. Everything is focused on the US and any other regions offer nothing but toxic workplace behaviours and terrible bullying from senior leaders. One leader wanted to build a place of psychological safety but they are the most toxic leader I have ever had the misfortune of working with, they take information and weaponise it against people. Behaviour that is the very opposite of safe. I feel sorry for anyone being mentored by them! If you are a senior leader you cannot ask questions or challenge decisions if you do they will exit you. The worst thing here is they tend to get rid of the people who are competent and keep the people who are yes men

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.
