GitLab sets the standard for remote working
GitLab sets the standard for remote working
I have worked remotely for several years and worked at GitLab remotely for 1 month. I must say that GitLab is light years ahead of most companies when it comes to creating the most efficient remote work environment. I think the key to their success is using tools to support their remote needs. I have listed a few below:
Recruiting Remotely
- Use Zoom for candidate interviews
Release Planning Remotely
- Use GitLab to track and plan software releases
Agile Ceremonies
- Use Automated Slack Bot to facilitate daily Stand Ups across remote time zones
- Use GitLab to perform asynchronous Sprint Retrospectives
Meetings & Company Announcements
- Use Zoom and YouTube for meetings & company announcements
Socializing Remotely
- Use Zoom for informal Coffee Chats
- Use Slack for various social channels
I have nothing to report.
