      Amazing Culture, Super Bright, Passionate People

      Pros

      Smart, passionate co-workers. GitLab has an excellent culture consisting of a very open, transparent, and flat hierarchy. The people here love what they do and are willing to go the extra mile to help and make sure any job is done in the best way possible. Pay is good, company is growing with excellent market position, and did I mention it is work from home.

      Cons

      Work from home can be a negative if you aren't used to it and don't have a bit of an independent streak. The resources and help from co-workers more than makes up for it, and you don't have a hybrid environment because everyone works from home. Everyone works super hard so you have to find your own work-life balance.

      Thank you for leaving such a thorough review! You make a great point about how helpful the team is, which is especially important in an all-remote setting.

      Initial Impressions

      Pros

      I'm very new to GitLab but I'm nothing but impressed so far. Here are some of my Pros for working at GitLab: - Full-time Remote (Done Right) - Competitive Salaries - Good Benefits including funds for setting up your remote workspace or co-working space. - Work-life balance

      Cons

      Hard to speak about cons since I just started but the distributed nature of the teams, across time zones, will take some getting used to. I love the idea though so it's not much of a con.

      Thanks so much for sharing your experience so far, and welcome to GitLab! You bring up an important point -- being part of a global team certainly has its challenges. But since we're an all-remote company, we document everything, and we can work asynchronously, you may find that collaborating across time zones comes more naturally than you'd think.
