Pros

Only positive is that it's truly remote. Since they have no physical offices, there's no option of being hybrid.

Cons

Team members are paid unequally. Those hired via employee referrals are treated and paid better than others that have been there.

Pros

GitLab's the only company I've worked at where "what you see is what you get". They really, really do live out their values and seem to genuinely care about work-life balance.

Cons

Full remote is not for everyone. The support engineer role also has on-cal rotations, which can be huge source or stress for those not used to that.
