Great Culture and Leadership!

Pros

GitLab has an amazing culture driven by results. They do not care when you work, but that you simply get the job done. It is refreshing to work for a company that allows this sort of freedom. Everyone at the company is friendly and welcoming.

Cons

If you are not a fan of working from home (or working remotely) than this company is not for you. The freedom and flexibility come with the possibility of feeling lonely, but GitLab is doing its best to combat that. We have instituted coffee breaks where you schedule time to take breaks and chat with co-workers. We also have many channels on Slack to communicate with co-workers.

Lives up to its values

Pros

Work remotely anywhere in the world. Literally. And the company will hook you up with everything you need for your home office. The team is so nice. Like really, really friendly. Everyone. The company values aren't just written down to make the company sound good, but they're actually upheld and encouraged by upper management. Even (and especially) things like taking time off. The CEO and other execs actually listen to all employees, no matter their position or newness to the company. If it's a good idea, it gets heard and acted upon. This rarity is enhanced even further by the openness of the daily team call and other calls.

Cons

Working remotely is awesome, but... well, it can mean you'll be by yourself a lot if you're not careful. That can be good or bad depending on who you are and how you work.
