I don't understand your position:
1. In the first hack, if anything Okta over communicated about the hack: the hack ended up being much less severe than they originally said was possible, and, from a security perspective, the hack didn't really have any negative consequences to customers.
2. Your second 2 links are about the same issue, which was a breach of their GitHub accounts. Again, it's worrisome that someone could find vulnerabilities in their source code, but no customer data was compromised.
You're free to think what you want about the severity of these hacks (I personally think they're low), but I don't see how you could have problems with "how they dealt with it each time". They seemed to have textbook correct incident response communications - what else would you suggest they had done?
Also, given the nature of the breaches, I don't think they point to severe security culture problems at the company (in contrast, for example, to the LastPass and Solarwinds breaches, which showed all the signs of clown show security culture IMO).
