Remote Response
4yHi there, thank you so much for taking the time to write this review and sharing your thoughts with us which are always welcome.
There seems to be different matters described in your review and below we will do our best to address them all.
In relation to what you state as Pro’s - we’re happy that you felt that you were surrounded by great professionals and individuals. Our mission is to build an awesome team and be an example when it comes to remote working. That said, by no means, have we ever said there is no room for improvement.
When it comes to EVP (Employee Value Proposition for those reading the review) we have rolled out a lot of initiatives and programs to support our team members and give them opportunities to grow and develop their careers. We are proud to name some of the benefits we’re providing like Modern Health for our team members and their families, Learning Budget, Unlimited PTO, Stocks and other programs that prove that we value and put our employees first at all times - (https://www.notion.so/people-Benefits-perks-1e48a5869c274f40910b76d405b92f63).
We’re also working on building clear career paths for our team members’ progression and you can see an example of the Engineering career path (https://www.notion.so/people-Career-paths-blueprint-886e5de833c840a8bc267821f78fb650) available here.
You’re absolutely right - Remote has grown incredibly fast in the last 12 months - we have hired, we have improved and we have scaled - and with all this we secured 2 funding rounds. This is not - by all means- an easy task.
Growing at such rate requires a lot of ownership, flexibility, and ability to adjust to this ever-changing environment. The same goes for positions that are bound to evolve with time. One thing did not change and that is our mission and our values in all the work we put in for all employees, clients, and stakeholders.
As mentioned above, we offer unlimited PTO so this in itself describes our priority to rest and recharge - no one at Remote is encouraged to work long hours, weekends, or outside their timezone. We also work asynchronous so this flexibility exists (Public Handbook for more information link - https://www.notion.so/Remote-Handbook-a3439c6ccaac4d5f8c7515c357345c11).
We believe any situation outside this should be called out when it happens to your Manager or People team.
In regards to our Leadership team, we believe that having Transparent conversations between C-level team members and the Employees is in fact ground-breaking. Here at Remote, we hugely believe in the importance of all the voices, even if they are conflicting, and this brings our Transparency value to a higher standard.
If you would like to share your thoughts please feel free to reach out to our People team - even if you’re no longer an employee we always welcome feedback.
