Pros

Repping here with over 20 years experience in the work force for big IT and pre and post-IPO companies. If you're considering or being considered for a role at Harness, thank your favorite supreme being. The interview process is very transparent and honest. Everybody I spoke to was warm and personable. I felt like I could speak to them about anything - not just work stuff. Once I joined it was more telling everything in the company's core values is in every employees DNA. Your happiness as a human is what's put first - not the bottomline or anything else. Come find out for yourself! Harness is the best place to work!

Cons

Good wine needs no bush.

Pros

I started working at Harness as an intern and will be full-time in May. Working at Harness has been an enriching experience for the following reasons: 1. Excellent mentorship: Leaders take an interest in the development of your career and want to see you succeed. 2.Awesome growth opportunities: People are promoted on the basis of their merits. 3. Excellent product that solves major developer pain points and doesn't have any major competition. 4. Great people: everyone works hard but still makes time to have fun and get to know others. The off-sites are a blast and very creative (e.g., in a speakeasy bar)

Cons

Chair massages are only once a month :D.

Pros

Harness ship fast. One or more production deployment every day, New feature can be released any day when it's ready without waiting for a release train months away. This is unheard of in any of the enterprise software company I worked for before. We truely practise on what we preach for - continuous delivery without the fear of break things. If you are tired of working on the legacy tech stack in your current company, and don't see light on when it's witched on to the latest and greatest, and up to the excitement and challenge of a startup building on best practice of the latest and greatest, this is the company for you. The Harness CD-as-a-service platform is built on top of NoSQL database; modular micro-services containerized and deployed into Kubernetes cluster hosted in the cloud; using best practices of security and secret management; using our own machine learning algorithms to verify our own deployments;a few clicks a fully functional/dedicated cluster including UI, multiple backend services and database with your code changes baked in can be provisioned just for QA verification. Some of my previous employers have tried years to achieve part of these but without success, it's all realized in Harness already. It's exciting to see Harness grow in terms of product capabilities every day and seeing new faces in every all-hands meeting.

Cons

Not much so far. You won't expect a startup has the full spectrum of benefits as more established companies.
