I really enjoy the "big company small feel" you get working at F5. Even though it's a global business with 4,000 employees and growing, the day-to-day can sometimes feel almost like a startup. It's an exciting place to work. Plus, there is beer in the break room fridge. I'm pretty new here, so this is a first impression.
You can tell there are growing pains as the company transitions into that larger point in its lifecycle. Some things around the development process can be confusing, and resources can be difficult to find. Overall, the company is handling them well, but they are there.
