First days, but so far, what an amazing onboarding

Pros: The company and your colleagues take care of your soft landing into the company (and the remote work) with simple things like:
* Calls with your manager and the onboarding buddy.
* Breakout calls.
* A self-explained and step-by-step onboarding (using GitLab).
* And everything is documented, so you can learn at your own pace.
Cons: Partially doing single sign-on, which implies a lot of work to set up online accounts on your first days.
