      Pros

      Positive work culture and acceptance.

      Cons

      Unstable work environment. Late stage startup that cancels projects while you’re in the middle of proving them to customers

      Thanks for taking the time to share this. Really glad the culture came through even when the rest of the experience didn't land the way we'd hope. Wishing you well on the next step of your career journey.

      Serious work, incredible people — the rare company that actually lives its values

      Technical program manager

      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      Chainguard is genuinely special. The culture here isn't just a slide in a deck — you feel it from day one. Everyone embodies the four principles: customer obsessed, bias for intentional action, serious work with a playful culture, and trust and good intentions as a default. People are exceptionally talented and also just really kind. The collaboration is effortless, there's real passion for the mission, and it's one of the most fun and energizing places I've ever been.

      Cons

      Fast-paced and ever-changing — but that's what makes it fun and exciting.

      Great remote employer and who takes care of their employees

      Pros

      - True remote first company - Onboarding went smoothly. The process was welcoming and everyone is friendly. - Company culture and values are part of onboarding and actually shape the way the company operates. - Energetic environment. - Not a place where you will be micro managed. - Lots of tough engineering problems to solve - Benefits/compensation are great

      Cons

      Posting this review after about a month, nothing negative to report.
