Our Approach to Flexible Work

With Flex Work we’re combining the best of both worlds: in-person time and remote. Our approach enables our teams to deepen connections, maintain a strong community, and do their best work. We require at least 50% in the office or in the field with customers, prospects, and partners each quarter, depending on role. This allows you to create a flexible schedule that meets business, team, and personal needs while maximizing time spent together. Remote roles may still come together in offices for important moments.
