Pros & Cons
Grafana Labs
- 100% remote-first across 40+ countries with generous PTO (~30 days) and mandatory shutdown days
- Engineers rate it 4.9/5 — absurdly talented colleagues with strong open-source culture
- Career progression above staff level can be challenging with limited upward mobility
- Product management is sometimes marginalized with engineers holding disproportionate power
Together AI
- Open-source AI infrastructure — real mission alignment, not just marketing
- Small team with outsized research output; your work has direct impact
- Early-stage means wearing many hats constantly — not for specialists
- Limited career ladder; growth paths are still being defined
