Pros

Only positive is that it's truly remote. Since they have no physical offices, there's no option of being hybrid.

Cons

Team members are paid unequally. Those hired via employee referrals are treated and paid better than others that have been there.

Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts. We’re glad that you’ve found our remote environment to be a positive experience. Regarding compensation, there are several factors we take into account to ensure we offer fair and competitive compensation packages to our team members, regardless of where they apply. You can find those principles on this Total Rewards Handbook page: https://about.gitlab.com/handbook/total-rewards/compensation/#gitlabs-compensation-principles

Pros

Best company I've ever worked for. Strong culture, great leadership, competitive compensation, excellent work life balance, and a genuine focus on employee well being and career growth.

Cons

Fast paced environment and high expectations, but that's part of working at a successful, growing company.

Pros

OK pay or benefits in the market. Fully remote. Still is trying to frame itself as a big player.

Cons

Leadership went from being collaborative, communicative, and transparent, to being mercurial, secretive, and out of touch with the actual work. OBSESSSES over your AI usage metrics - even if AI doesn't help you and slows you down. The current layoff in progress was communicated poorly and not planned at all. And now they want us to adore the leaders and the company? Cultish vibes. We went from a company that plans ahead to a company that reacts.
