Process
I applied through another source. There was an initial screen with a recruiter, and then we arranged the core technical round with a member of the SRE team. The first-stage screen was supposed to be 30 minutes, but we ended up speaking for an hour. The second round was 60 minutes. I never heard back from the recruiter after the second interview, even after sending a follow-up email.

Pros: From your first moment, everyone makes you feel at home. Everything is well-documented and structured, and if there's something unclear, there are always tons of people willing to help.
Cons: Sometimes timezone differences can be non-optimal, but since most of the work is asynchronous most of the time, it's a non-issue.

Pros: Interesting work, competitive salary, fantastic colleagues, and a company that really walks the walk when it comes to openness and clear process. All of GitLab's HR and process documents are online and followed. Any employee can contribute to change within the company. I hope more employers follow GitLab's example.
Cons: Heavy workload, but clearly communicated and manageable.
