Pros

GitLab has an open and inclusive culture with strong values. Being a fully remote company, working here relies on asynchronous communication. The way everything is organized really helps people to work from anywhere and any timezone in the world. Colleagues are very patient, supportive, and easy to get along with.

Cons

No negative points at this moment in time.

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.
