CEO lets his employees? How generous.
CEO realised the game has changed, offers flexible working in order to retain talent.
- blinded 5y agoVery true. bBddy of mine got rejected at dropbox two months before the pandemic because they didn't do remote and he didn't want to move to SF. Now they brag on linkedin how they support remote work.
- ThalesX 5y agoBefore the pandemic I was in talks with a company and I requested three days of remote work per week. They wouldn't budge from their 0 remote work policy. Pandemic hits. Boom, posters all over LinkedIN with their remote friendly culture, their generous $200 grant to cover for home-office equipment.

Since Automattic’s 2005 founding, such flexibility has been the norm.
