Pros

- Some really exceptional people - Async work - Good salary - Lots of autonomy

Cons

- Too much indifference all over the place - The culture disappeared at some point, probably due to hypergrowth - Some people are slacking massively. Having to depend on those people is a pure nightmare - More often than not, async is misused as no-sync - Lots of miscommunication related to Performance Reviews, e.g. how are employees rated and how does that map to promotion and salary increase

Pros

Probably the biggest Elixir codebase I ever worked on. I learned so much about Elixir at Remote compared to any of my previous Elixir roles just because of the sheer number of Elixir developers that are in this company. True async work culture. I worked remotely for a very long time now, but they're all sync. This is the first time I experienced async work and it's so refreshing. There are downsides, so you do have to work hard to keep this culture, but it's great to have this kind of work arrangement. The culture regarding maintaining a Single Source of Truth (SSOT) is also one of the big perks of working at Remote. Almost everything you would ever think to ask can be found within their documentation, which enables you to do the work that you need to do without having to wait on people who are working from other timezones. The perks are also great. They invest a lot in the personal development of all of their employees. The private healthcare is top-notch in my country.

Cons

Your experience may vary depending on the team that you'll end up on. Also, while the salaries are pretty decent, they're not that great if you compare this role to other similar opportunities especially on a global scale. Also, before I left, the company seems to be backtracking on some of their widely advertised benefits which suggests a bad outlook on their business in the months to come.
