Memgraph, initially operating with offices in London and Zagreb, transitioned to a remote-first work model due to the pandemic, discovering significant benefits in flexibility and productivity. Although initially viewed as temporary, the remote setup became permanent following positive employee feedback, with most preferring hybrid or fully remote work. This shift allows employees to design their own schedules, promoting a balance between work and personal life, and enables them to work from various locations, provided they have internet access. Memgraph supports this model by covering co-working space costs and encouraging asynchronous communication to accommodate its globally distributed team. The company aims to maintain a flexible work environment, combining the advantages of remote and occasional in-person interactions, to foster diverse and productive teams.
