Culture and benefits at Stepsize

Culture overview

We used to be based in London but things changed after COVID. We’re now a distributed team working within a range of overlapping timezones: from GMT to GMT+2. Here’s why: • Working remotely brings many lifestyle improvements. If you’re happy, odds are you’ll do great work too. • But speed is important to us. We want to be working around the same time so it’s easy to collaborate live. • And we want to get together a few times a year to bond in person. That’s much easier to do if we’re not spread across the globe. Whether you prefer to work from home or from a co-working space, we’ll fund your remote setup. That includes your computer, screens, desk, chair, co-working space, etc. We’re a small team and can tailor the package to your needs. Anything to help you work better. Within reason, of course ? And here are some of the employment benefits you can expect: • Competitive salary • Stock options • Private health insurance • Flexible holiday policy • Generous parental leave -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Culture is the set of behaviours that lead teams to success. You’ll contribute to shaping our culture as the company grows and succeeds. Initiative  If we spot something worth doing, we do it. Ownership  We each drive projects forward and hold ourselves accountable. Pragmatism  Hacky, robust, consensus, disagree & commit — we adapt to individual situations. Listening  We focus on understanding each other before convincing each other. Over-communicating  We try to minimise misunderstandings by saying more rather than less. Intellectual honesty  We don’t let ego get in the way. Intellectual independence  We value conventional wisdom but make up our own minds about things. --------------------------------------------------------------- Check out the pics from our retreat in Lisbon last December! We aim to get together at least once a quarter now that we've (hopefully) seen the worst of COVID.
