GitLab Inclusion & Diversity

GitLab Employee Perspectives

Team Member Resource Groups (TMRGs) offer team members togetherness, camaraderie and connections to GitLab giving them a sense of belonging while introducing new and current team members to GitLab’s culture.

We have awesome Team Member Resource Groups. One of my coworkers started a TMRG called Minorities In Tech, which inspired me to start my own for Asian Pacific Islanders. Those are the little things that help me feel like this is a safe and inclusive workplace. It also inspires me, as a new manager, to start hiring with an inclusive mindset, and ensure that anyone I hire is enabled and empowered to contribute.

What People Are Saying About GitLab

  • Autonomy: All-remote, async-by-default operations and a results-over-regimen mindset let people structure work around when they are most productive and live virtually anywhere. A handbook-first workflow centered on issues and merge requests supports self-directed decision-making with fewer mandatory meetings.
  • Values & Integrity: The CREDIT values are actively maintained, tied to competencies and job levels, and operationalized through public-by-default documentation and transparent decision trails. This clarity makes norms, expectations, and tradeoffs explicit across teams.
  • Benefits & Perks: Flexible PTO, equity/ESPP, parental leave, mental health support, and home-office stipends are documented alongside country-specific benefits. Compensation principles and location- and level-aware bands are explained publicly to increase predictability.
