Pros

Working at Okta in recruiting has been one of the most rewarding chapters of my career. From day one I’ve felt empowered to make an impact, whether that’s through helping top talent find meaningful roles, building strong partnerships with business leaders, or contributing to broader initiatives that shape our hiring culture. What truly sets Okta apart is the people. I’m surrounded by smart, collaborative, and values-driven teammates who are passionate about their work and always willing to support each other. Leadership trusts us, encourages innovation, and gives us the autonomy to do what we do best. I’ve had the opportunity to grow as a leader, take on strategic projects, and evolve with the business as we scale. It’s exciting to be part of a company that doesn’t just talk about culture—it lives it. I’m proud to be part of the team helping to shape Okta’s future through every hire we make.

Cons

As with any high-growth company, things can move quickly and priorities can shift. It sometimes requires extra effort to stay aligned across teams and adjust to new processes or expectations. That said, it’s also part of what makes the work dynamic and keeps me learning.

Pros

Great Benefits. Fantastic product. Company is scaling (or at least trying to).

Cons

Management and company culture has grown toxic. Extremely political and dramatic. Specifically in sales, marketing, and the C-Suite. I wouldn’t recommend joining okta unless you are some type of director or above and also remote. SF just RTO’d and it’s been miserable.
