They love producing public facing verbose process documents... At first I thought, oh these are some neat ideas, but the more that they produce, the more I wonder how they get anything done with so much (verbose) process.
- williamchia 7y agoI work at GitLab and can shed some light here. As a 100% remote company we work in all timezone. Writing things down actually helps make things more efficient. At my last job, to get anything done I needed to call a meeting because state lived in people's heads. When someone left, of if you couldn't get them to a meeting, it was very painful. It took forever to get things done because you needed to physically be present in order to work. At GitLab because so much is documented it's easy to pick up state and collaborate with co-workers in all timezones. What's cool, is because it's public, other random people will jump in and help you out that you'd never expect since they have access to everything you have.
