Pros

So many! But a few notable pros: - Incredible career and market opportunity with the company growing at an unprecedented rate - Talented team that's also warm and welcoming (including the execs) who live by the company values and clearly love what they do / have fun while doing it - Remote workforce offers flexibility, but bi-annual internal Summits give you the chance to get that in-person energy, and are designed to take advantage of the time together - Best-in-class benefits for a Series C startup (10-year equity exercise window, fertility benefits and 18 weeks leave for birthing parents, 100% healthcare covered for you and your dependents)

Cons

Not a con, necessarily, but be ready to go at startup speed! There are a decent amount of folks at Chainguard from larger companies and it can be a transition, but a welcome one for me personally.

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.

- 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.
