Pros

There are some nice people. Compensation is competitive.

Cons

No 401k matching.

Leadership is constantly changing their vision/roadmap.

Innovation has stalled in the last several years.

CPO/CEO have steered Okta in the wrong direction.

There is no accountability if what is promised is not delivered.

Okta is not what it appears from the outside.

High turnover.

Recognition is minimal.

Stay away.

Advice to Management

Stop constantly changing the roadmap. It's hard to succeed with a constantly moving target.

Maybe really look at why quality people have left and are leaving. People don't leave if it's a good situation.
