Pros

Fast moving company. I think my manager cares. Pay is above market rate for size

Cons

This is not a con, but if you need firm processes to get things going, this is not the place for you. Work/life balance could be better, but it's up to you to manage

Pros

Chainguard is genuinely special. The culture here isn't just a slide in a deck — you feel it from day one. Everyone embodies the four principles: customer obsessed, bias for intentional action, serious work with a playful culture, and trust and good intentions as a default. People are exceptionally talented and also just really kind. The collaboration is effortless, there's real passion for the mission, and it's one of the most fun and energizing places I've ever been.

Cons

Fast-paced and ever-changing — but that's what makes it fun and exciting.
