Just wanted to comment that I totally admire the bravery behind this post. GitLab definitely grows too fast (it was 200 last I checked). It amazes me that far too many here are afraid of repercussions and retaliation by future employers (just see the "warnings" about bad blood in the comments here). That too on HN (who are supposedly the idealists who want to changes the world and all that)! Seriously guys, all this person has done is detail his experiences in what he thinks is the truth. And believes it enough to let go of a good chunk of money. Also, this comment surprised me (from https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14037692 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14037692): "Unfortunately, as a contractor, you do not have these protections. Given that the entire company is remote, only a tiny percentage of the people that work at GitLab are actually employees, and they take full advantage of that. " Wow.
