Pros

All remote work, fast growing company with fantastic product, thought leader in the DevSecOps space, insanely transparent (nearly all company information is publicly available, just try a Google search!), great benefits and compensation package.

Cons

Onboarding is very self-service, information and communication is in too many channels, sometimes it can be hard to find things and sometimes you have to go to multiple places to maintain data and do work: Handbook, GitLab, Google Docs, Salesforce, Slack

Pros

Best company I've ever worked for. Strong culture, great leadership, competitive compensation, excellent work life balance, and a genuine focus on employee well being and career growth.

Cons

Fast paced environment and high expectations, but that's part of working at a successful, growing company.

Pros

OK pay or benefits in the market. Fully remote. Still is trying to frame itself as a big player.

Cons

Leadership went from being collaborative, communicative, and transparent, to being mercurial, secretive, and out of touch with the actual work. OBSESSSES over your AI usage metrics - even if AI doesn't help you and slows you down. The current layoff in progress was communicated poorly and not planned at all. And now they want us to adore the leaders and the company? Cultish vibes. We went from a company that plans ahead to a company that reacts.
