Doctolib

  • βœ“Mission-driven colleagues who genuinely care about improving healthcare access
  • βœ“Strong growth opportunities with flexible remote policy and decent benefits
  • βœ—Management can be heavy-handed β€” uses company principles as weapons against feedback
  • βœ—French-centric culture makes it harder for non-French speakers to advance

Supabase

  • βœ“Truly open-source DNA β€” build products millions of developers use daily
  • βœ“No-hierarchy remote culture with extreme autonomy and generous allowances
  • βœ—Intense workload β€” more work than a single person can reasonably manage
  • βœ—Work-life balance rated 3.0/5 β€” fast shipping pace can be relentless
Doctolib
Genuine social mission (digitizing healthcare access for millions) with a fast-shipping culture, but at 3,500 people reviews cite organizational change fatigue and management inconsistency.
Supabase
Egoless, fully remote culture with just one meeting per week and extreme autonomy β€” but the relentless shipping pace means work-life balance takes a hit.
