Remote engineers at GitLab receive a $1,500 home office setup stipend, $100/month home office allowance, and full benefits regardless of country. Salaries are localised using a formula based on San Francisco market rates adjusted for local cost of living — this means Filipino engineers earn less than US engineers, but all are paid above-market locally. GitLab's Glassdoor rating of 4.4/5 reflects strong employee satisfaction. Ghost job score: 8/100 (very low — GitLab closes roles quickly).
