This company gives all its employees a free puppy
- ocdtrekkie 12y agoDo I need to ask... where are they sourcing the puppies?
- scottporad 12y agoGreat question! The company doesn't actually give the person a puppy. They reimburse for adoption fees, etc. So, it's up the new employee what kind of dog to get and where they want to get it from.
- ocdtrekkie 12y agoOkay, good to hear they're not buying them at such and such puppy mill stores. :)
- danshapiro 12y agoI'm curious about the hiring breakdown: - Dog already, don't want another - No dog, don't want one - Want a(nother) dog
- scottporad 12y agoWe surveyed our team on this very question: 49%, 14%, 10%...and you forgot one, "no dog, want one": 27%
- ocdtrekkie 12y agoMy inner statistician is ecstatic you had this information just lying around.

- ocdtrekkie 12y agoAlso: Come work for us, we'll give you free added responsibility and medical bills!
- delinhabit 12y agoWe don't have to get a puppy. I work here and I wasn't forced to get a puppy. I plan to get one this year though, so this is really welcomed!
- ocdtrekkie 12y agoThis comment, in particular, was a joke. ;) I figured they probably didn't force you to get a puppy. I mean, presumably, if you go work at Rover.com, there's a good chance you already have (at least) one.
- blindjoedeath 12y agoWhat's the policy on cats?
- scottporad 12y agoCats are assholes. We do not have any cats in the office. Full disclosure: I worked with cats before I worked with dogs.
- stefanrusek 12y agoMy wife's google+ feed is all german shepherds. We are planning on getting one in the fall. Do you hire people to work remote?
- scottporad 12y agoWe have some developers that are part-time contractors, but our office is based in Seattle and everybody works here. (Though, we do have have a liberal work from home policy.)
