Apr. 29th, 2019 06:28 pmDay 1 - Product Manager, Secure
Day one was mostly on-boarding with a few meetings
Meetings
I had four. I was slightly surprised, and very happy that meetings start on time, meetings end on time, and during meetings everyone collaboratively takes the notes. I when volunteering for non profits and gaming take notes and leave it open for collaboration but rarely get assistance. This is awesome.
On-Boarding
There are so many accounts to sign up / configure!
This was a bit surprising because they are such an integrated product themselves. and promote not having to stitch their product together to get a devops pipeline. But there was chat, HR, video conferencing, email, etc.
Everyone is very welcoming, and there are many ex-Rackers
I didn't get done the target day 1 things so I felt bad, but everyone said not to worry.
I won't be getting my company laptop until next week, and apparently it does not work well with windows or Lenovo, and the only computer I have is windows on lenovo and I am not keen to follow the recommendation to install ubuntu on it. I might spin up a VM if needed.
I submitted an expense report, and will be attending a company meeting next week. I am excited to meet so many people.
GitLab not just GitHub competitor, it's an integrated end to end code ecosystem.
There are nearly 600 people!
They are about transparency, the handbook is online and public
They are super big on their values, CREDIT (Collaboration, Results, Efficiency, Diversity, Iteration, and Transparency)
GitLab is hiring! 100% remote, and is hiring
