Pros
There's really a *LOT* that can be written here, but here's a couple that are standouts:
- The people: the folks working here are incredibly talented and very kind and nice as well; I've had the displeasure of working in toxic work environments in the past and the difference is jaw dropping. You will genuinely like working here simply because of the healthy space that awaits you
- Values: Like a lot of companies, Remote has a public handbook (handbook.remote.com), but unlike a lot of companies we actually adhere to it — unsurprising because being a completely remote and async workplace, its the only source of truth for a lot of things; the best part is that the first value that is expected of everyone is Kindness — towards other people in the workplace, our customers and the product itself
- Treated (and paid) fairly: it doesn't matter where you're working (remotely) from, you're paid incredibly fairly and treated as such as well. The leadership is well experienced with remote work and knows what they're doing — this isn't a startup simply burning through VC money :P
- Truly diverse: employees are literally from all corners of the world (and more on the way!) and there are conscious efforts always ongoing to be at the top of the game
- Your time and space is respected: whether you're a night owl or an early riser, its really up to you when and how you'd like to get things done, you're trusted to do what needs to be done. Also, everyone knows you're only human, so its expected of you to take the day off if you're simply not feeling it :)
Cons
absolutely none, which is also surprising because it is difficult to keep up the good stuff when a company is growing at such a rate — credit to the leadership for leading by example in all aspects and ensuring that things didn't go off the rails
