How we work

eyeo has colleagues based all over the world. We love our diversity and take great pride in our company culture. We practice an independent, remote workstyle with work distributed in cross-functional matrix teams that span predominantly EST and CET time zones. If working remotely isn’t for you, we also have a large office in Berlin and soon in NYC that you can choose to work from. We meet twice a year as a team and host an annual-company retreat, our Summer Week. By enabling remote work and in-person sessions, we have built a culture that provides a unique dynamic of flexibility and belonging.
