No surprises here. Exactly what is advertised!
No surprises here. Exactly what is advertised!
The handbook is not a marketing tool. The whole company lives and breathes the handbook, and it's fantastic. Since I joined, nothing has surprised me, as every process and expectation is defined.
The CEO and executive team are not hidden away, taking an active role in day-to-day activities. They are open to difficult questions from team members regularly.
Very open and transparent. If it can be public, it is.
Remote work is brilliant. Proper work/life balance is so much easier to achieve, which makes me more productive.
None yet! It's been an entirely positive experience.
If remote work doesn't agree with your mindset, this isn't the place for you!
Carry on doing what you're doing. Times are tough right now, but everyone I've spoken to (including myself) finds the transparency around COVID-19 very helpful.
