Pros
- Freedom and open culture - You get to choose the technologies you want to work with - Work with lot of smart people - Good learning
Cons
- Really bad senior management (especially in bangalore). They care only the people they like and insult everybody else. Some people enjoy by doing nothing since they have the blessings of the senior. - Promotions/hikes will be based how much the manager likes you instead of what work you have done. - Beware of the terms 'upstream first' and 'open source'. Some senior people think having the repository in github makes the project open source(no public announcements, no documentation, no community). The developer is not allowed to about it public. This totally opposite of what Red Hat claims to be. - Useless side projects will get more attention(from management) than a mainstream project. - HR is only name shake, they don't know people's problems.
