Pros

"Culture" isn't a joke. It's real, and it's great.

Lots of great technology to work on.

Cons

Lots of changes in the past couple of years, most of which are not for the better, including quite a few reorgs, layoffs, and hiring freezes.

Pay is OK, but not great, though the benefits are pretty good.

A lot of the changes seem like they are changing the culture by making Red Hat feel like a corporation.

The company is starting to invest in too many things, such as telecom, automotive, and AI.

Advice to Management

Refocus on our core values and core competencies. Stop chasing every dollar that is out there.
