Remote, Not Distant
Blog post from Roboflow
Roboflow has developed a thriving remote-first work environment since its founding in 2019, emphasizing both flexibility and team cohesion. The company, which eschews a centralized headquarters, supports its globally distributed team by providing top-of-the-line equipment and a productivity stipend for home office enhancements. To foster camaraderie, Roboflow organizes virtual activities, themed lunches, and team-building events. Additionally, the company has initiated grassroots hubs where employees in close proximity can collaborate in shared spaces, with the company's financial support. Biannual company on-sites and a travel budget further facilitate in-person interactions, while on-premises onboarding helps new employees integrate effectively. The remote-first approach allows Roboflow to harness a diverse talent pool while maintaining a supportive and connected work culture.
