Maybe you don't.
Not if your next company has customers in more than one timezone and one of them is polar opposite of yours and by "manage your own hours" the implicit expectation from you was that "manage customers as well whether it's your sleeping hours or waking hours".
That's exactly how my company played its cards by allowing "flexibility" and then later confidently telling "well, it's your responsibility" while hiring in other timezones has been "on the cards" since 2+ years now.
Some CEOs tell devs at the time of hiring - "we are a family", "we don't differentiate between day and night", "we are hustlers".
Anyway, besides the bleak possibility I painted I hope OP's company does it better.
- nyellin 5y agoOP here and that's not the intention. I very much hope that we will manage to stay the same as we scale and grow.
