      Pros

      GitLab has an amazing culture driven by results. They do not care when you work, but that you simply get the job done. It is refreshing to work for a company that allows this sort of freedom. Everyone at the company is friendly and welcoming.

      Cons

      If you are not a fan of working from home (or working remotely) than this company is not for you. The freedom and flexibility come with the possibility of feeling lonely, but GitLab is doing its best to combat that. We have instituted coffee breaks where you schedule time to take breaks and chat with co-workers. We also have many channels on Slack to communicate with co-workers.

      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.
