How flexible is your schedule working at GitHub?

Great work life balance, top tier benefits, and coworkers were all excellent.

If you're not engaged in the AI space, it could be a draining environment as things shift quickly. As with any company, many pros and cons are team dependent.

Work life balance Challenging problems Well known brand Great coworkers Amazing benefits

Lots of reorgs Lack of budget for raises recently No in person meetings

Good work life and good coworkers

MSFT and generally LT doesn't have direction or keeps changing it often

Flexible working, smart people, decent benefits

Poor opportunities unless you happen to be working on a headline project

Decent flexibility for PTO, good benefit accounts, and not too difficult to do well

Benefits have been getting worse and worse every year Microsoft just tells us what to do and how much money we get for salary/bonuses and then they move goalposts to pay less. Constant layoffs with below industry standard payouts Poor top level decision making and an inability to stand by good products instead of chase a shiny new technology.
