      Good place to work with enterprise software

      Anonymous employee

      Pros

      Have been working with enterprise software for a while in my career so far. Okta is the only one that does not have that rigid and dull engineering environment and atmosphere most of other similar software company have. Challenge engineering problems to solve due to the growth and the natural of the cyber security problems. Engineering interview might not be as hard or intense as Google or Facebook but it's certainly not easy which is a good thing because it maintains a relatively high standard software engineering culture.

      Cons

      Might be a side effect for the growth, more and more "processes" got introduced and sometimes might be a little frustrating if you are really free will.

      Strong growing company with scaling issues

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - Great product and the leader in the market - Large amount of enterprise customers to reference - Full confidence that this company will go public - Clear executive plan on how to get to a position to IPO - Great Executive leadership with Todd and Freddy - Lot's of smart people here that are very good at what they do

      Cons

      - Scaling the company has lead to many problems that have been amplified over time and has caused what culture we had to deteriorate - Lack of strong leadership in certain departments and very unorganized processes - No managerial review process/forum for employees - Performance reviews and evaluations either don't happen or happen months after they needed to occur

      A Place for the Best of the Best

      Pros

      Okta isn't easy. It's a place for proven professionals and innovators who want to be challenged. You have to be hungry to be here. The folks who come on Glassdoor and complain about management (instead of having a meaningful dialog with their managers), complain about the stress, the fact that they have to walk a half mile to the BART, or whine about the free food weren't cut out for the type of advanced employee-ownership that successful start-ups like Okta demand. They weren't right for Okta -- some of them have left, and that's a good thing. Not everyone makes the cut for the Navy SEALS either. If you're hungry and want to be a champion, then we want you!

      Cons

      We need to keep our eyes on the ball and don't let the drama of a few who don't have the intestinal fortitude to hack it here distract us.
