Trust, not toys

Dear tech companies,

Employees don't need ping pong tables or beer fridges at work. 🙅‍♂️🙅‍♀️

Employees need flexibility to do their best work and enjoy life. For instance, working remotely. 🙋‍♂️🙋‍♀️

Please offer trust, not toys. 🙌

Back in 2011, I was working at Google.

Many of my colleagues commuted for 1.5 hours each way San Francisco <> Mountain View.

Sure, Google main campus had all the toys: Bean bags, fully stocked fridges, nerf guns... Yet, I was yearning for trust:

C'mon, commuting 3 hours a day sounded crazy to me!

Remote work felt like the best option. I wanted the flexibility to organize myself however I wanted.

It also led me to create Remotive, we help tech professionals land remote jobs.

Today, we're relaunching out blog! What will you find here?

• Remote workers interviews, polls, stories, AMAs...
• Long-form article on leading/growing remote companies
• Tips & tricks on how to land remote jobs!

Stay tuned, we have a lot to come!
