Okta Careers, Benefits, Review

We are committed to Diversity, Inclusion, and Belonging (DIB) at every level. At Okta, we collectively nurture a culture of equity, inclusion, and belonging in driving Okta’s values and mission to meet the needs of Okta employees, customers, partners, and the communities we serve.. We are focused on moving from inclusion to equity; from activities to impact; from commitment to action and accountability in our DIB efforts.  

To accomplish this, we are devoting our energies to facilitate and operationalize high impact, high-visibility initiatives that create equitable processes, inclusive behaviors, and a community of high-performing, balanced teams.

We value what makes each individual unique. That’s why our focus on identity extends well beyond our product, to include how we hire our employees, engage our teams, structure our company, and support our community. 

We know that a diverse landscape of employees, partners, and customers with a broad range of perspectives is the only way we’ll be successful in building an iconic technology company. Within Okta, our DIB efforts are inclusive and driven across business units and geographies. Inclusion ensures that we have fair and equitable processes and structures that enable everyone to be their authentic self at work. Our ultimate goal is creating a sense of belonging, giving everyone the confidence and security to actively participate – because ultimately, our differences are what makes us stronger.

As we move ahead on this journey, we want to recognize our learnings, share updates, celebrate our accomplishments small and large, pull forward our challenges, and highlight the partnerships in our annual State of Inclusion Report. Creating inclusive spaces and processes requires intentional and hard work to change systems and mindsets. And we are committed to this effort — now, and moving forward. 

Our approach:

Our Diversity, Inclusion, and Belonging (DIB) program focuses on three major areas:

Workforce

• We believe in recruiting diverse talent to create balanced teams

Workplace

• We support and empower employees to be authentic and grow through open conversations and education

Marketplace

• We go to market and sell to diverse audiences

Okta is the foundation for secure connections between people and technology. By harnessing the power of the cloud, Okta allows people to access applications on any device at any time, while still enforcing strong security policies. It integrates directly with an organization’s existing directories and identity systems; 7000 to be exact!

Because Okta runs on an integrated platform, organizations can implement the service quickly at large scale and low total cost. 

Thousands of customers, including Adobe, Allergan, Chiquita, LinkedIn, MGM Resorts International and Western Union, trust Okta to help their organizations work faster, boost revenue and stay secure. 

Our team includes some of the smartest, most creative and innovative people you'll ever meet.

Okta takes a dynamic approach to work with a focus on maintaining flexibility and choice while maximizing opportunities for engagement and community building. 

With Dynamic Work, Okta employees are not required to spend a specific number of days in the office. Work schedules are flexible and based on employees’ work preferences and role, who they need to collaborate with, and how they balance those commitments with their personal life. 

Office spaces are available for when employees need or want to use them but rather than requiring employees to come onsite, we create environments that employees want to come to and empower them to make that choice alongside their team and manager. 

Dynamic Work is more than enabling employees to work from anywhere, it’s about providing employees with comparable benefits, flexibility, technology, and work environments/experiences in the location that works best for them.
