“Commit changed my life. It was the bridge that helped me in the most difficult moment in my life to make a career transition. I had all the emotional and professional support, a safety network, to know that if everything goes wrong, Commit is going to support me.”

“The community support and the promise of being a part of the community for life really drew me to Commit. Being a part of such a supportive community is a really cool thing.”

“[Before] Commit, during the normal probation period we would just work as hard as possible and perform our best to show that we were capable of handling the job. But now with Commit, it’s really balanced everything out so I don’t have to stress anymore.”

“At the end of the day it’s always about the people that you work with. You can have the greatest idea but it really comes down to whether you want to be with the people you’re at the table with. Luckily, because Commit helped us streamline the process, we knew we were on the right path to finding someone we would enjoy being in it with.”

“I would say that doing some introspection work to realize what you want is very important, because that’s how you can make the most out of your time with Commit. It’s important to spend some time thinking about what you want to do, take a walk in the mountains, whatever it is.”

“I really enjoy working in a startup environment because you can grow faster, you have more responsibilities, and you need to work with different technologies. Startups are a big opportunity to grow, so I loved the fact that Commit worked with startups and that they were trying to find engineers with that startup mindset.”

“I really saw the opportunity to get access to senior developers who want to find the right match, be part of a startup and enjoy working remotely. Commit had that focus on engineers who are remote because that’s what they love to do, who are experienced, are building out a community, and helping individuals grow.”

“Many good engineers already have a steady job—enticing them away into a riskier startup role can be tricky. The engineers at Commit know what they’re getting into and Commit helps de-risk the process, which makes it easier for everyone involved.”

“We believe bringing together a relatively small group of incredibly talented folks will produce considerably more interesting and impactful outcomes than a much larger team that’s sprinkled with mediocrity.”

“The startup scene is more my forte. It’s faster paced, with more responsibility. It’s not just that your decisions have a greater impact, it’s that you hold much more responsibility. I felt enticed and excited by that.”
