Our Approach to Flexible Work
With Flex Work, we combine the benefits of both in-person and remote work. This approach allows our teams to deepen connections, maintain a strong community, and perform at their best. Recognizing that flexibility can vary greatly, we do not specify a required number of in-office days each week. Instead, we aim to spend at least half (50%) of our time each quarter either in the office or engaged directly with customers, prospects, and partners, depending on the role. This provides you with the freedom to design a schedule that meets business, team, and personal needs while ensuring meaningful in-person interactions. Team members in remote roles also have opportunities to gather in our offices for important moments.
