1. The company has very good professional culture. It really cares for employees, and put effort to provide them great working environment. 2.

You would find yourself complaining if you compare compensation and benefits with that of some "very high" paying startup or big tech.

Akamai is one of the best company to work at. There is so much to learn work explore and grow. One of the best things is the culture. Sometimes i feel its so chill that one hosuld join akamai at their career end when they want to settle.

Dislikes
