Pro All positions tagged remote allow fully remote employees
Some job boards will allow a position to be tagged with "remote" if the job only includes some work from home days. Stack Overflow requires that candidates be allowed to work entirely remote for the remote tag to be added.
Pro Very developer focused
The job postings are all for programming or tech related positions, so there is no need to filter out other job types (such as customer service).
Con Not many listings
There is usually around a couple hundred remote positions listed at any given time (all jobs, not specific to just one type), which isn't a lot compared to many remote-specific boards.
Pro Easy to match/connect with employers
AngelList works almost as you'd expect from a dating app. You can click "Interested" in a position or company. If the company does the same with you, an introduction email will be sent to both parties. This helps save time applying for jobs as you know who's interested.
Pro All salaries are listed
Every job post must include a salary range for the position, which saves you from wasting time applying to positions that aren't offering the salary you're looking for.
Con Not a hotspot for remote jobs
Currently there are a couple hundred remote jobs listed (in total, not specific to devops). While that is still a good number to look through, it's nothing compared to many of the remote-specific job boards.
Pro Variety of freelance and salaried positions
There is a good variety of job types so you're able to find what fits your schedule and lifestyle best.
Pro "For hire" posts get a lot of attention
Where many of the current remote job boards are specifically for employees looking to apply to positions, reddit is a good place to post "for hire" ads and allow the employers to contact you.
Con Not specifically a job board
Reddit is not specifically a job board, so many lack some of the features you're looking for (such as a strong search feature).
Pro High quality, serious job posts
The cost to post a job on We Work Remotely is $200/30 days. Being such an investment for the company insures that all job posts are from serious employers.
Con Not that active
We Work Remotely is fairly quiet, with often only one or two new job posts a day. This is likely due to the $200/month cost for employers to post the job ad. There is usually no more than 10 jobs listed under the "Devops and Sysadmin" category.
