Since we started building our awesome team at folk back in 2020, we've been working fully remotely which gives us the amazing opportunity to expand our team in various places 🌍
For everything we're building at folk, from our product to our team, we adopt an iterative approach. Scaling our team is no different. We take it step by step.
🕔 Timezones
To ensure a smooth transition as we scale, we start with European time zones (+/- 1 hours from Paris). This approach enables us to establish solid foundations for HR processes and foster effective team dynamics.
🌳 Geographical proximity
Though we’re a fully remote team, we value in-person interactions. Whether it's for team gatherings, collaborative work at our Parisian offices, quality time during our Folk-off events, Product Hunt launches, or any other good excuse we can find to meet 🙃
We aim to minimize geographical distance. We are looking for future team members based within a +/- 3-hour travel time from Paris to streamline logistics and reduce our environmental footprint.
🛋️ Chose your workplace
At Folk, we cherish the flexibility of remote work. You can choose where you work, whether it's from the comfort of your home, a co-working space, or our Parisian offices. It's all up to you!
We offer:
- Travel to HQ: We do not want our remote dynamic to hinder team gathering. folk covers travel expenses to Paris, allowing for in-person visits up to 2 times each month.
- Work from Home: We provide a dedicated budget for your remote setup, ensuring a comfortable working environment.
- Co-working Option: For those who prefer a different workspace, we allocate a dedicated co-working budget, catering to team members unable to visit our Parisian offices regularly.
👀 To foster team bonding while working remotely, we have implemented some very cool team rituals
