How We at Roboflow Do Remote Work
Blog post from Roboflow
Roboflow has successfully implemented a remote work structure that combines technology, team activities, and clear communication to maintain productivity and team cohesion. With a team distributed across five states and two time zones, they utilize tools like Sidekick for virtual coworking, Zoom for meetings, and Slack for communication, which includes both work-related and fun channels. Their approach includes regular team activities such as weekly lunches, Donut pairings for casual coworker interactions, Raccoon Awards for recognizing achievements, and a book club to foster discussion and engagement. Additionally, they integrate business practices like daily stand-ups, weekly sprint planning, and participation in the Pioneer network to set and achieve explicit goals, which has led them to top the Pioneer leaderboard for 25 consecutive weeks. This combination of structured workflow and team-building activities supports their remote working environment and contributes to their continued success and growth.
