Pros

The core of the main product is a top-200 open-source project on GitHub. It's great to have an impact on the open source world on a daily basis! The team is excellent, there's so much to learn from others in the team. There's a great culture of learning from each other in the company, with weekly demos and regular hackathons. The throughput is is remarkable, and there is a great balance between getting rid of technical depth and working on new features. The organization is transparent and flexible, with lots of freedom to choose your work-style. The team is quite international and located in lots of different time zones, which is facilitated by the inclusive and remote-friendly environment (async communication setup, alternating times for the ceremonies,...). Last but not least: The prospect of the company is awesome, and the perks are great!

Cons

I can't really name a contra. The responsive management at eye level helps in bringing up and actually addressing issues fast (technical, but more importantly organization-wise).

Pros

I haven't been working at LocalStack for long. However, it has been an incredible experience. From day one, I felt welcomed and valued as part of the team. Here are some of the highlights of my time at the company: Supportive and Inclusive Culture: LocalStack fosters an environment where everyone feels included and valued. The management genuinely cares about employees' well-being and professional growth. Work-Life Balance: Localstack understands the importance of work-life balance. Flexible working hours, remote work have helped me maintain a healthy balance between my personal and professional life. Innovative Projects: Being part of a forward-thinking company means working on exciting and innovative projects. It keeps the work dynamic and engaging, with plenty of chances to contribute ideas and see them come to fruition.

Cons

None that I can think of at the moment. The company continuously strives to improve and addresses any issues that arise promptly.

Pros

LocalStack is really an awesome place to work. There are exceptional engineers (which I can learn a lot from), working and coming from all over the world (even though the team isn't too big yet). When it comes to individual growth, the engineering team really embraces a mentoring approach where each new team member has a mentor which ultimately becomes a sparring partner.

Cons

I haven't found any cons for working at LocalStack yet, most importantly because the whole team (including management) continuously tries to improve and address any issues that might come up along the way together.
