Harness

First of all, the company has built a great team of people who help and support each other. I joined this year and work in CD engineering. I was new to the domain, but got help from everyone on the team to be onboarded quickly. This is a fast-paced startup in the unicorn club, and so I was ready to put in the extra effort needed. It's been 5 months and I'm enjoying the journey (minus working from home). The tech stack is exciting, and I feel satisfied when my hard work pays off seeing large brand-name customers use the features I developed.

A lot of freedom once a feature is assigned and the sprint starts - no poking around by my managers every day other than giving updates or asking for help in the daily stand-up meetings. The executive leadership team is very transparent - they announce promotions openly in all-hands and not silently promote people without telling everyone, which is common in Bangalore companies. I will update after I complete one year, but it's been great so far.

There is a lack of good documentation everywhere.
