      Pros

      The executive team at GitLab is excellent and wants people to be happy at work and succeed in their jobs. I've been given every tool I need to be successful. Working remote has been amazing. I have the opportunity to mold my work schedule to be whenever is most convenient for me. I usually take a break during the day to run errands or go to the gym.

      Cons

      Working remote isn't for everyone. Some people can feel isolated. The company is also quick to let people go if they aren't able to work effectively remotely. This has led to a few people that get hired and then let go very quickly or within a few months. I think the company is making efforts to fix this in the hiring process.

      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.
