Pros

I have been a part of the Testlio family for almost two years now, and I can confidently say that it has been an incredible journey. Despite facing challenges last year, the leaders of our company demonstrated exceptional guidance, steering us back to stable grounds. This experience truly showcased the strength of Testlio's leadership during times of uncertainty in the tech industry. One of the aspects that I admire most about Testlio is the transparency maintained by our leaders. In an era marked by unpredictability, our executives ensure that the entire team is well-informed about the company's stability. This transparency fosters a sense of security among employees, which is invaluable in the current tech landscape. Testlio's commitment to employee growth and development is commendable. The encouragement to obtain global certifications in software testing not only highlights the company's dedication to providing top-notch services but also showcases the investment in our professional development. This commitment sets Testlio apart as an employer that genuinely cares about its employees' career progression. As I reviewed Glassdoor today, I felt compelled to share my positive experience because I disagree with recent reviews. Testlio is not just a company; it's a family where everyone is committed to success. We are TESTLIONS! #LionPride I highly recommend Testlio as a workplace where transparency, growth, and support are not just promised but consistently delivered.

Cons

One drawback I've noticed is that my workload is quite substantial, but I recognize that this is a common trend. With companies implementing cost-cutting measures and striving for greater efficiency, the pace of hiring has slowed down. Although I'm not consistently overloaded with work, there are days when the hours extend beyond what I would consider ideal. While some days may be longer than ideal, the unwavering support provided compensates for any challenges. The strong sense of teamwork, extending from the executive team to our network of testers, creates a collaborative environment. Testlio's emphasis on values, particularly the "give a damn" attitude, is not just a slogan but a lived reality within the organization. It's evident that Testlio genuinely cares about its employees, fostering a culture of support and camaraderie.

We welcome everyone to the TestLion Pride. Being a female-founded tech company with Foster Inclusion as one of our core values, we celebrate diversity and create an inclusive environment for employees of all backgrounds and cultures. With full support from the Executive Leadership Team and our Board of Directors, we embrace multiple Diversity & Inclusion initiatives such as: 

  • Gender Equality. We work towards more equitable practices and policies for people of all gender identities and sexual orientations. We are proud that 55% of our Executive Leadership Team is female. Our company is Distributed by Design, which allows more flexibility and balance for working parents. We also offer paid parental leave options for all new parents, including those who expand their family through adoption and surrogacy.
  • Cultural Diversity. We seek out and support employees from diverse cultural, racial and ethnic backgrounds. Another benefit of being Distributed by Design is the ability to hire team members from around the world. In addition to expanding our hubs in Estonia and the US, recent hires hail from Mexico, Portugal, Philippines and Egypt. We have multiple virtual events and engagement opportunities optimized for different time zones to ensure everyone stays connected.
  • Learning and Development. Ongoing investment in our employees is key to ensuring equal opportunities for all. Every TestLion gets unlimited access to Udemy and full-time employees get a personal development credit. Our annual Testlio Leadership Development Program is open to all individual contributors, not just existing team leads and people managers.
  • #IamRemarkable. We have brought this Google initiative in-house to better empower women and underrepresented groups. The program encourages people to speak openly about their accomplishments in the workplace and beyond, helping break down modesty norms and counter imposter syndrome.
  • Testlio Ignite. Our social impact initiative, Ignite is a 10-week scholarship-based program that helps people from underrepresented communities initiate careers in remote software testing. Everyone in the company is invited to participate in mentoring and supporting these aspiring testers.

Driven by our foundational values to Give a Damn, Challenge Things, Team is Everything, Be Kind, Make an Impact and Foster Inclusion, we pay close attention to creating equal opportunities for each and every TestLion in our Pride. If that speaks to you and you'd like to become a part of our team, join us!
