      Pros

      Great people and remote work make it tolerable.

      Cons

      So the CEO has been publicly fired which is a win but is only half the problem you see. The Chairman has been working as Keiths business coach for years and is just as responsible for his failings as the CEO. Yet Barry is now the temporary CEO while Keith becomes the fall guy? Come on.. What about the CFO employed to help the CEO figure things out? She exacerbated all of Keith's shortcomings and yet she hasn't been removed? These two people were put in place to help the CEO learn and grow. The opposite happened. He got nastier and started to make worse decisions and the consequences for those people? Nothing.

      Pros

      Really flexible working environment with significant amounts of personal freedom to create a comfortable work life balance.

      Cons

      Can sometimes be a bit overwhelming in terms of sprint times / crunch projects.

      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
