Pros

Harness is probably the best company I've worked at in my entire career. We just hit 400 employees and it's just amazing what we've been able to accomplish. We're a company that's really going somewhere and the ride so far has been incredible. At the time of this writing, I've been here 7 months. -Greatest boss. No micromanaging, lots of autonomy and trust. -Great comp, 100% covered health insurance, dental, and vision. Supplemental life insurance costs, but it's super cheap. -Stock options. -Very frequent employee recognition. -TGIF-Off program where we get a free Friday off every month. -$500 remote stipend, broadband is reimbursed, so is cell phone. -$50 food/drink allowance every month. -401(k). -Full remote. -Great culture. Great focus on DEI. -Women in tech are taken very seriously here. -Chances are there's a 'club' for you. Lots of diverse interests represented. -I barely ever have to work over my 9 to 5. Work/life balance in my department is amazing. I know it's not the same for everyone, but on my end, no complaints. -The product is super solid and constantly improved upon and new features added. It's easy to work somewhere when you believe in the product. I absolutely love it here and I can see myself staying for a while.

Cons

There's really not much in terms of cons. -PTO is pretty standard - I'm surprised we don't do open time off or 3 weeks instead of 2. -401(k) matching would be cool!

Incredible Team and Vision

Pros

Opportunity to be a part of pioneering a new vision for a market space. Growing fast and the team is landing large, transformational deals. CEO, product and GTM leadership are tightly aligned on a transformative vision for the CI/CD space. Humble, supportive, and transparent culture. There are incredibly talented people here.

Cons

CI/CD is a competitive space and there is a lot of "vendor noise" so it takes time to break into initial engagements with clients. But when we get to the POV stage and they are able to see how the platform makes their lives easier everything everything clicks.
