      Not the company it once was - Anonymous employee GitLab Employee Review

      Pros

      Flexible work hours, emphasis on async and delivering results rather than time online/behind a desk, incredibly talented team of individuals from all walks of life, company genuinely cares about all forms of diversity and emphasizes the importance of mental health

      Cons

      Typical growing pain for a late-stage company, but the company values (collaboration, results, efficiency, DIB, iteration, transparency), particularly iteration and transparency, are quickly becoming obsolete. Leadership can be particularly prickly to work with, many positions lack actual and obtainable growth opportunities

      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.
