Pros

6 weeks of PTO, tons of perks, very good tech, lovely people, and a low-profile cornerstone for a top 1% tech company—hard to beat! Fully remote!

Cons

Being a underdog against big cooperate can bring uncertainty.

Pros

If this company is to be successful, the CEO needs to step down. He is impulsive and dangerous to his own company. He also does NOT like when others don’t fully agree with everything he says. If you are not a yes man, you are out. He also likes to brag about being a "Millenial CEO“ while hypocritically criticizing others on linked in. It may not be too late for Buildkite, but the fat lady is warming up. She will start singing if the CEO continues to trip over his own ego. He will learn the hard way that his employees abhor him.

Cons

Company does not live up to its values
