Pros

I mean, there are literally so many "pros" that it's almost impossible to list them all, but I guess the ones that aren't so easily obvious (in the GitLab handbook!); the team are all really, really lovely, happy to help and very welcoming. You're given a large degree of autonomy, with a simple motto: "Make GitLab great!". It's definitely a company that is on the up-and-up.

Cons

It's the flip-side of some of the pros, really; the fully remote aspect certainly isn't for everyone, as is the expectation to self-motivate and be generally autonomous.

Pros

- Everything is documented, easy to get on board - Everyone is very kind and willing to help out - Massive growth over the past years which leads to great dynamics - All-remote and flexible working hours which leads to great work-life balance.

Cons

Some growth pains as a lot of people recently joined, things can be chaotic and unstructured. Timezones can be tough too. But all not a real showstopper.

Remote work, async communication, fantastic PTO policy, opportunities for career growth, and transparency!

Cons

Some orgs have less work/life balance, it's something they're working on.
