Connectivity Reimbursement: If you don’t have Internet connectivity, we’ll help you get online. The purpose of this reimbursement is to defray the cost of connectivity necessary for remote work. Up to $80 per month reimbursed for internet expenses, which may be via moble connectivity (e.g. adding a data hotspot plan to your phone).
-
Remote Home Office Reimbursement: We’ll contribute toward the cost of laptops, peripherals, or equipment, and/or the cost of making your space comfortable and enjoyable place to work. Furniture and equipment that will help you be healthy (standing desks, for example) are particularly encouraged. Every laptop has an environmental impact. Folks who have personal laptops that work well for work may wish to consider using it until a new machine is needed. Available to full-time employees after 6 months of tensure; Up to $1500 total reimbursement every 3 years.

Co-work / Coffee Shop Allowance: You’re not limited to working in your home. If you need a co-work membership (e.g. WeWork On Demand) or just want a change of pace at a coffeeshop, we’ll cost-share. If you participate in this benefit, you’ll receive a virtual credit card with a spending limit of $420 per quarter (Pro-rated for part-time employees).
Other Perks
-
All casual, all the time: Please wear clothes that you find comfortable, keeping in mind context and who you’re interacting with. Likewise, please be OK with life happening around you showing up on screen. For example, kids/pets popping by is just how it is (and it’s no big deal).
-
Autonomy: It is a wonderful thing to be in the driver’s seat of one’s own work and work-life balance. This is a perk that we provide eachother by cultivating horizontal practices.
