### Remote work
- We love flexibility of the work (e.g. someone being able to adapt working conditions/time to their needs) but we love team harmony even more,
which is why this one has priority over flexibility.
We noticed on many occasions that teams work better if they are working together.
Therefore, whenever possible, people should work with the team.
That being said, there are sometimes good reasons for remote work (long commuting, etc.).
To keep everything in balance, we try to follow these rules:
- For the first few months the work should be on-site, remote work being an exception.
This assures best conditions for onboarding.
- After a person is well integrated into the team and can demonstrate that this does not affect the quality of their contribution, they can agree to work a few days a week remotely.
- In exceptional cases, which should be discussed with the CEO, one can work mostly remotely, with on-site work once every week or two.
But even in such cases we would want first to have a couple of months together so that we get to know each other well.
- Before working remotely for the first time, make sure that you have your VPN certificate issued and test the VPN connection from the machine you will be working on.
- Transportation benefits are reduced proportionally when working remotely. (Excluding the part of the benefit in the value of an LPP monthly pass, which will not be reduced for anyone.)
