Pros

Some people here are great, but the huge expansion has meant the culture has been lost and isn't upheld due to the number of people leaving after quite a short tenure.

Cons

Sadly, the culture you're sold isn't what's the reality. There are some great people here, but they're a bit too few and far between to create a good, healthy work environment.

Pros

- Intellectually challenging work - Focus on enablement and development - Customers love the product - Everyone is very approachable and willing to learn (humility is a must at GitLab) - Most people are drivers here, not passengers - Uniquely positioned in an economic downturn from consolidation and do 'more with less' point of view - Ultimate freedom in where and when you work - Work/Life balance is very respected

Cons

- Heavy administrative processes - 100% remote work can be challenging - Some processes are very immature (but you can change them as 'everyone can contribute' at GitLab)
