Pros

+ GitHub brand + Remote employees are well supported + Collaborative environment + Strong focus on Social Impact (this is one of those things that makes your proud of your employer)

Cons

- for non-developers it can be a challenge learning the GH tool, it is used across company and getting up to speed for people who do not have a strong technical aptitude can take time

We are so glad to hear that you are enjoying your time at GitHub and appreciate this feedback! We agree that a strong focus on social impact is something to be proud of and while we have a lot more work to do, we are also excited about the progress we have made thus far. The tool can be tough to navigate as a non-developer, but the good news is that teams are working to make this transition easier with products like GitHub Desktop (check it out if you have yet to use it). We will work hard to continue to meet your expectations as a wonderful place to work!

Pros

Remote work with some really great team mates

Cons

Currently GitHub seems to be all over the place and with some key Leadership moving on, the replacements seem to be mainly coming from MSFT.
