@samcambridge Thanks! Today we had a team member with a cat clamping to the top of the back seat of his Ikea chair as he swiveled. It was hilarious. I only have a picture of the cat after the fact http://imgur.com/a/aedNO
This is great. We implemented our handbook at ~10 employees (much earlier than most startups) and it has been a huge hit. Frankly, I don't know how anybody can get past 20 employees without one.
@goeric Same for us. We grew from 9 people in March 2015 to over 90 now. It went very smooth and I think the handbook was a big part of it.
This is one of my most favourite employee handbook since I've started looking for such a materials in 2013! Thank you so much for promoting the idea of Transparency of internal documents and special thanks for OKRs section and making them public đź’›
Thanks for open-sourcing this. It's been really interesting to read as the founder of a v young company where we still have so much of this sort of stuff to codify.
@gideonfarrell You're very welcome. Consider using our stuff as a template and customize it to your needs. The full history should be available so you can also go back in time to when we were smaller. If you do this don't forget to send back some of you improvements to us.
Solid work, very straight forward and seems to embody Gitlab's corporate spirit well. I did some spot checking for a project I'm wrapping up now. Thanks for a great reference.
@jasonkylescott Thanks for your comment and tweet, much appreciated.
This is stellar. Congrats Gitlab team for making this open sourced. A lot of companies will benefit.
@danflopes Thanks Daniel! We hope that many organizations can reuse (part of) our handbook. It has been great having people apply because they like the way we would. And we also look forward to receiving contributions and making the handbook better together.
@sandroadamia It happens, here are some examples http://www.nasdaq.com/article/6-... but most seem not to be updated nor can you see the change process. You can view our changes at https://gitlab.com/gitlab-com/ww...
@sandroadamia Cool, I hope you can share it some day, but no pressure.
Thanks for doing this. This is really encouraging to see and I hope other companies can follow suit.
@clemmakesapps Thanks Clement. We certainly also hope more companies will open up their processes and go Remote Only http://www.remoteonly.org/
