      Amazing company values, leadership and vision

      Cs operations analyst
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Had certain expectations when I joined and I am happy to say that the company has far surpassed them. The attention to making people feel that they belong, care for diversity and inclusion, remote work training, accommodations for creating your workspace, support for learning have all been amazing! My team and team leaders have all been super supportive, giving me the right balance between providing guidance and allowing for autonomy, which I really enjoy.

      Cons

      I have not identified many at all at this point in my journey with GitLab. This is going to sounds odd, but maybe there is a bit too much documentation? Having too much of anything can make things be a little overwhelming. That is the only thing I can think of.

      Smart people, terrible leadership

      Marketing
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - Being around some incredibly smart and great people - Pushing the remote culture for the greater world - People willing to help out to accomplish greater goals

      Cons

      - Values are only followed by leadership when convenient. Particularly around transparency around goals and expectations. Decisions and data are only shared among select individuals in marketing where goals are a constant moving target. - There is no SSOT datasource and there are ongoing inaccurate data issues that make doing your job, difficult - Disagreeing with leadership can get you shown the door. Many groups have a "do as I say" mentality. - There is no stability in marketing leadership. It is a revolving door with leadership "mutually agreeing" to the leave organization. - Handbook and documentation can often be used as a weapon against you. - Pay is well under industry benchmarks. Annual review cycles will rarely get you more than 5-10% salary increases.
