Squarespace Employee Reviews

We view our people as professionals with interests, responsibilities and passions outside of work. And we believe employees need quality time to unplug and recharge for their own well-being and satisfaction. Through our flexible PTO policy, we encourage team members to take the time off they need to recharge and be their best.

What People Are Saying About Squarespace

  • Remote or Hybrid Flexibility: Flexible arrangements through the Officespace/Homespace model allow remote or hybrid schedules determined by role and team, supporting day-to-day flexibility. This structure is positioned to reduce commute burden and helps employees align work with personal routines.
  • Time Off Access: Flexible PTO is promoted with explicit encouragement to unplug, alongside up to 20 weeks of paid family leave and a six‑week sabbatical after six years. These benefits indicate meaningful opportunities for rest and recovery when needed.
  • Workload Manageability: Product and engineering workloads are generally sustainable outside major launches, with many roles reporting reasonable hours. This suggests the typical pace can be steady rather than crisis-driven in several corporate and technical teams.
