Pros

company swag, okayish onboarding structure

Cons

the company is not at glamorous as it seems. the unlimited pto is a myth because you have to ask everytime your manager to approve even 4-5 days (given the allowed is 22 days by law). The workload and processes are extremely stressful and heavy with maangement always pushing for more and more. It's widely spread and encouraged to go through an "agenda" and not even ask basic question such as "how are you doing" Additionally, remote first is also a myth because if you want to travel for more than a week from your current address, you have to ask for an approval, and guess what do they look at? Numbers. Don't waste your time here

Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts. There is a ton of flexibility and autonomy that comes with being part of a completely remote team. We want Do’ers to make the most out of their experience with us, while also ensuring that all objectives and key results are clearly defined and met to a high standard along the way. DoiT has an unlimited PTO policy - and like all companies, we ask that employees submit all PTO requests for approval and discussion in advance so that managers can balance PTO equitably, discuss plans for coverage, and ensure we are tracking to meet and exceed individual and team goals. We also have a clearly defined policy and review process for Digital Nomading, which is defined in our Employee Handbook as working from a different location for a prolonged period of time (more than 2 weeks). We have a number of employees that leverage this policy and process to work from different locations at different points during the year - myself included. But every request and every situation is different, and it’s key that we understand and discuss all elements up front so that everyone is aligned on expectations, timing, locational nuances, employment laws, and any other complexities worth considering between origin points and destinations. All Do’ers can review our complete Digital Nomading policy at Go/Handbook, but please reach out if you have any further questions. Lastly, while a co-created agenda for a 1:1 (or any meeting) can help make the most out of the time, it’s not a substitute for a manager’s need to also demonstrate genuine support, care and interest in the people they work with every day. I’m sorry to hear that you feel the balance has been off kilter. If you’re comfortable, I’d strongly encourage you to talk to your manager about it - but if not, please reach out to me, your People Ops Business Partner, or a leader elsewhere in your department. We have this expectations for all managers and find that most Do’ers have had a great experience, but we’ll be working to reinforce it in upcoming leadership development programs. Kristen Tronsky, Chief People Officer @ DoiT

Pros

- Ability to execute: We have many talented engineers/sales/cloud architects who are open to questions/feedback. I am confident in our ability the achieve goals we set out. - Coworkers: The best part of DoiT is the people I get to work with. Genuine, smart, kind is the three words I would use to describe my colleagues at DoiT. - Work/Life Balance: I have healthy balance of consistent/steady work hours while having the flexibility to change my schedule as needed. Company is complete remote and is a great environment for anyone who wants to be able to spend more time with family and not in an office. - Product Differentiation from other Cloud Partners: DoiT's platform is unmatched when comparing to other Cloud Partners. Most cloud partners rely on 3rd party tools for FinOps, monitoring/observability, diagramming, etc... DoiT has a large engineering team dedicated to building these tools for the DoiT platform. - Bonusly: One of my favorite perks is Bonsuly, which allows us to recognize peers for great work. We are allotted points each month to give to our coworkers which can be exchanged for Amazon giftcards or donated to charity.

Cons

- Drawbacks of a full remote environment which are not exclusive to DoiT. Cross Collaboration among teams can be challenging at times. Working in different time zones offers less time online with colleagues living in other areas. Having too many slack channels for minor items to arrange communication. - Salary is on the lower end of competitive. WFH should taken into consideration when analyzing total compensation. DoiT does do annual bonuses and the benefits are very solid as well. So while I think total compensation is competitive, I do see other cloud partners offer higher salaries (~20% more) for similar roles. DoiT has made it a priority to focus on compensation plans and ensure they are adjusted to fair market value.

Pros

DoiT is a strong environment for people who like moving fast, learning constantly, and being held to a high bar. Ignore many of the negative reviews. 90% of them come from people who were not willing or able to keep up with a startup pace and were looking for a comfortable, low effort role. This is not that kind of company. There is a clear performance culture. Regular reviews, clear expectations, and accountability are real. People who do not perform are put on PIP, which is exactly how it should be. I want to work with high energy, engaged teammates who care about results and are willing to evolve. From a technical perspective, the stack is strong and modern. As a Forward Deployed Engineer, you are not just a services arm. You are close to the product, influence real design decisions, and are encouraged to contribute back to the platform. That level of trust and inclusion is rare and genuinely motivating. If you are a high performer, curious, and self driven, this is a great place to grow and have outsized impact.

Cons

This is not a slow or relaxed environment. Expectations are high and the pace can be intense. If you want a predictable, low pressure job where you can coast, this will not be a good fit. Ambiguity is part of the job and not everyone is comfortable with that.
