  • Time Off Access: Flexible/unlimited PTO, paid sick days and holidays, and 18–20 weeks/12 weeks of paid parental leave are prominently offered. Public descriptions also indicate that taking time off is encouraged and can be used in practice.
  • Remote or Hybrid Flexibility: A hub-based hybrid model with defined in-office days (typically Tuesday–Thursday) and work-from-home latitude on other days provides location flexibility. Async-friendly norms further support working remotely when appropriate within hub cities.
