      A feeling you wouldn't get on many other places

      Senior backend engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      From your first moment everyone makes you feel at home. Everything is well documented and structured and if there's something unclear there are always tons of people willing to help.

      Cons

      Sometimes timezone differences can be non-optimal but since most of the work is asynchronous most of the time it's a non-issue.

      Not the usual company

      Senior backend engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      * Technical interview: you get a dummy project to work on. As a backend engineer, this is critical. * 100% Remote work * Benefits * Super helpful team members * Everything is written down. You have traceability and version history of everything. Check the GitLab handbook. * Dogfooding. GitLab uses GitLab for its day to day activities. * Cross team collaboration

      Cons

      * Onboarding can be intimidating. * It takes time to get around how things work and are organised but this is mitigated by the handbook.

      Great Company!

      Senior backend engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Remote work that does not lose the communication and interaction. Great culture. Everyone's helpful and supportive.

      Cons

      Timezone difference if you're in the APAC region can be a bit challenging but it's a minor thing. The company's doing its best to remedy this issue.
