Vantaggi
There was a moment that GitLab was full of talent and potential. It is truly a shame that this is going away. Some talent is still there but obviously on the lookout
Svantaggi
Lack of understanding how business outside of North America is conducted. Zero empathy, haphazard decisions that contradict each other twenty minutes after being implemented, too much superficiality and hypocrisy at high levels and a lot of incompetence in key roles, which unfortunately kills talent and, above all, the much-vaunted values ij the handbook like transparency. To give you an idea of how dysfunctional the company is, they share private information with other people in email threads. If Remote is what you are looking for, there are tons of Companies in a better shape.
