Pros
- All remote - The published "Values" truly reflect the internal environment - Some of the best people managers I have ever had the pleasure of reporting to. These are healthy, supportive, hard working individuals with management styles that promote enthusiasm to do your best work. Truly refreshing. I've worked in Chicago, North Carolina and now reside in Washington State. The professionalism and the social skills of the GitLab management team is honestly the best I've experienced in my career! FIVE STARS! - A consistent enthusiasm for company success across teams - A true practice of collaboration within and across teams - A positive culture where everyone supports the success of the company and individual team members - Highly competitive salaries - Value and respect of DEI - Support and celebration of individuality (truly, truly unique!) - They promote a true feeling that everyone plays an important role in the success of the company and I feel truly valued
Cons
- in person team meetups are expensive - Team building events in person are more engaging than online - At times work/ life balance can be challenging. This comes with the small (2500 employees) but mighty (an industry leader) performance.
