Remote working
From the very beginning, we established effective remote working practices. Therefore, remote working is business as usual for us. It provides a better work-life balance and gives our people more autonomy. It opens up opportunities for people who otherwise would not be able to work with us and helps us do our bit in preserving the environment.
