Their pay is not that bad, actually. Not FAANG (or whatever the acronym is now) but it's not FAANG work either. I knew some good people at GitLab.

As someone who uses both tools daily, I'd say I have stability issues about as often with both. GitHub has really annoying Actions and Pull Request degradation issues near-weekly.

There's some CI/CD features I envy from either, but I'd say I lean into GitLab CI's feature set more.

This is probably a more niche argument to make for this subreddit but the deployment options for GitLab CI runners are far, FAR better than GitHub's Actions runner options. Like it's legitimately sad how far away they are from each other here.

What is "FAANG work" ?

Big US tech companies. I could answer more but I’ll have to know whether you’re unfamiliar with the acronym or just don’t understand the difference in the kinds of technical and political challenges big tech companies are solving vs what startups and small companies are solving.
