      Pros

      Unlimited PTO. Decent comp on hire.

      Cons

      Csuite execs aren’t the best leaders, removed from what their teams need or who is actually contributing in an effective way. I had a severe micromanager who also was very absent and changed their mind constantly. No opportunity for growth in this job category. Promotions are not equitable or standard. No one is ensuring EBAs are measured against the same standards. Severe favoritism. Get ready to get “handbooked” and told to do things the “GitLab way”… Hope you enjoy spending your day taking verbatim notes for calls as well, complete waste of 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.
