      Amazing Culture, Super Bright, Passionate People - Strategic Account Leader GitLab Employee Review

      Pros

      Smart, passionate co-workers. GitLab has an excellent culture consisting of a very open, transparent, and flat hierarchy. The people here love what they do and are willing to go the extra mile to help and make sure any job is done in the best way possible. Pay is good, company is growing with excellent market position, and did I mention it is work from home.

      Cons

      Work from home can be a negative if you aren't used to it and don't have a bit of an independent streak. The resources and help from co-workers more than makes up for it, and you don't have a hybrid environment because everyone works from home. Everyone works super hard so you have to find your own work-life balance.

      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.
