Gitlab Enterprise pricing starts at $39/user whereas Github Enterprise pricing starts at $250/user so from that perspective Gitlab kicks ass.
where did you see GHE asks for $250/user? seems the most expensive package is $21 [1]. [1] https://github.com/pricing
GitLab acquires Gitter, will open-source the code

Re: GitLab acquires Gitter, will open-source the code
#132Somewhat off topic, but I was once very interested in working for GitLab. According to their compensation calculator, though, I'd be making less than half what I make now (also working remotely). They ding me for living in a comparatively low cost area. I'm surprised they are able to attract talent to achieve what they have done so far. It makes me worry somewhat about my future prospects in an increasingly globalize…

Ha! Any suggestions? ;)
A cross platform GUI git client that doesn't suck!
I tried Tower when it was in beta for Windows, but the cost is too steep to justify it for me. But it seemed to be a lot more full featured than the GitHub client which isn't good for more than basic commits. And again, no Linux there either.
I'd definitely go for a solid, open source git client, and it's obviously very relevant to GitLab's business.

#135I love Gitlab but sadly, quite a lot of services that offer free accounts for open source projects (TravisCI comes to mind), generally don't integrate with Gitlab It's one of the few reasons why I am still using Github :( .
I would prefer if Gitlab CI was a separate product but there probably isn't a lot of benefit for Gitlab to do that. If you want to have Gitlab CI job results displayed in your Github branches you could try this test service:

I'm sorry but we don't comment on acquisitions prices. Being transparent about it is not common in the industry and us doing this by default might make future acquisitions harder since the company being acquired might not like it. Also see https://about.gitlab.com/handbook/general-guidelines/ "Most things are public unless there is a reason not to. Not public by default are: financial and legal information"
I think even public companies often disclose the prices though, especially for major ones. This being said, I have been thinking about the GitLab IPO, including things like fixing Reg FD for a while now.
"Even public companies"? Public companies are required to report a lot of financial information publicly that non-public companies are neither required to report nor in the habit of reporting.

Edit: Didn't intend to make a scene or put anyone on blast here. Just thought the calculator was a little silly. Thanks for the responses gitlab staff.

Senior Backend Engineer shows 85-95k in Chicago, which is below average. It shows 45-55k for Fayetteville -- most junior guys/gals start around 75k in Fayetteville at mediocre companies.
Seems backwards to have such a large incentive to live somewhere more expensive.

They're not really able to attract much talent. Look through the LinkedIn of some of the GitLab people. A lot of them are very junior (this is the first "real job" for one guy I looked up), and they, rather clearly, have an amateur leadership team, as exhibited by their recent spectacular failures, their underwhelming commentary on remote team management, their naive idealistic implementation of "radical transparency…

Mmm, that is pretty far off. If I understand correctly you're a developer intern in Orlando. In most countries interns are paid less than juniors. Maybe that is not the case in the US currently?

Edit: and yeah, I've read a lot about your company including that link. I understand your approach, it just excludes me.
