Pros

It has truly been an amazing experience right from the first TA call. The overall process took a little over a month. TA team has maintained overall transparency. But this culture is embedded in Gitlab everywhere. You can read how the company operates on Public Handbook. It truly fosters the open source culture. Love being part of such a great organization.

Cons

Nothing major as as of now. Onboarding can be a bit challenging since Gitlab operates in ~65 countries. There are lots of different systems, documents that may be overwhelming at first but the team supports in every way. I will review my experience in the next 3 months.

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.
