**Benefits**

We’re not interested in empty perks like having a coffee culture.

Here’s what our global team enjoys:

- Social fund
- Training fund
- Half days on the first Friday of each quarter
- Collaborative, flexible culture
- Transparency - hear directly from the CEO consistently
- We laugh a lot, genuinely care about and support each other, and do the occasional dress-up
