Culture overview
*Ad Signal Values* Honesty, Loyalty, Tenacity, Accountability *Remote-first* We do not have an office - the company was set up this way and this is how we plan for it to stay. All of our employees are all over the UK and we use the plethora of online tools (and the Google suite) to manage our day and comms. *Flexible working* Although we have core hours, we try to be as flexible as possible with other responsibilities you may have, such as the school run. If you need to be away from your computer at certain times each day please let us know and we will plan around it. If you need to be away as something comes up, please just give us as much notice as possible. There’s a Slack channel called #info-in-out; if you’re going to be away from your desk please let us know in this channel AND a rough eta for your return, so we’re not chasing you unnecessarily. *Please chat nonsense* We have no kitchen or water cooler to gather around and chat about our weekend, hobbies or personal lives; so please feel free to chat about whatever you like in Slack or while pairing. You’re not going to be criticised for talking with the team a healthy amount (which is quite a lot), in fact, it’s crucial to our culture; otherwise it will become a silent, sterile place to work, which is not what we want. *Quarterly Meetups* These will be both for team building and fun, and for whiteboarding and other planning. We’ll give plenty of notice beforehand and, since your home is your primary place of work, we will pay for any travel or accommodation. *Share options* We have set aside 10% of the company as share options to be divided amongst our employees. The exact number of shares, and their percentage value of the total company will be set during your interview.
