Serious work, incredible people — the rare company that actually lives its values - Technical Program Manager Chainguard Employee Review

- True remote first company - Onboarding went smoothly. The process was welcoming and everyone is friendly. - Company culture and values are part of onboarding and actually shape the way the company operates. - Energetic environment. - Not a place where you will be micro managed. - Lots of tough engineering problems to solve - Benefits/compensation are great

Posting this review after about a month, nothing negative to report.

Great benefits and compensation. The work-from-home flexibility they advertise is genuinely supported in practice. Strong communication across teams and great colleagues to work with. The company also promotes a healthy work-life balance, with employees being very respectful of different time zones and schedules.

There could be more consistency around processes, controls, and standardization across teams. At times, policies and procedures could be communicated and enforced more clearly to help improve alignment and accountability organization-wide. I also noticed that while cross-functional collaboration is encouraged and appreciated, there are occasions where decision-making can become blurred across departments. In some cases, it may be more effective for final decisions to remain with the manager or leadership team responsible for that area. There are situations where clearer “black and white” guidelines and expectations would help create more consistency and efficiency.
