Great place to work

Pros

Okta is an amazing company to work for. Okta has a huge vision for the future, and that vision is what drives everyone at this company to work their absolute hardest. That collective motivation feeds an unbelievable atmosphere and company drive - not to mention senior leadership also makes a solid effort to keep us happy (beautiful offices, lunches 3x a week, dinner every night, snacks up the wazoo nerf guns, bean bags, corn hole.. you name it!) If you're looking for a serious, hard working company that can also let its hair down when the time is right - Okta is your move!

Cons

Sometimes Okta is slow to make the tough choices and that leaves us with people in roles where they really don't belong.

Pros

transparent leadership, thoughtful co-workers, great offices, clear vision and goals, fiscally responsible, communicative management, great pay, strong board of directors, 100% uptime! I have been in a fortunate position to grow with Okta over the past 2+ years and have seen dozens of peers whose lives have been changed by the opportunity Okta has given them. It has been a great place to grow professionally. We are fortunate to be balanced with both youthful and seasoned professionals who conduct themselves with humility and grit. The market recognizes Okta's potential and we have massive companies drawing up new strategies in order to compete with us. I don't care where you are within Okta -- that is fun for all!

Cons

401k matching will come someday, but we don't have it today. Start-up doesn't accurately describe Okta anymore, so know what you want before applying. At ~600 employees and growing, there are mature processes and tightly defined goals for each role (which can be seen as good or bad depending on the individual).
