We provide you with everything you need to do your best work.
Team Bonding
- Company retreats ****
- We organize one company retreat per year. Recent locations have been Austin, Texas for SXSW and an Upstate Mansion.
- Impromptu team dinners and hang-outs in NYC (please feel free to set up and invite folks in #socials-and-events)
- We have a monthly team event:
- We use #socials-and-events to organize.
- We pass around the responsibility of setting this up to other members on the team (each month is someone’s month). The person responsible gets to pick a thing to do and help coordinate and rally folks. It could be a “Healthy” activity, a “Drinks/Dinner” activity or anything. Budget is 30USD per person. The person in charge for that month gets to pick the next person and shares it in #socials-and-events.
Time Off
We encourage you to fully use your time off in the way that best enriches you and helps you recharge.

🔑
When taking time off, please make sure to add it to both your personal calendar and the team-wide OOO calendar ahead of time. Also give a quick heads-up to the teammates you work with most closely—like your manager and any collaborators—so no one’s left hanging.
No need to announce it in Slack unless you want to.
If you’ll be out for more than a couple of days, please put together a short OOO handoff doc so your work can keep moving while you’re away. And if there’s any chance folks might need to reach you in an emergency, include how best to get in touch.
</aside>
- Unlimited PTO — minimum 15 days a year.
- Unlimited sick days
- 11 US Company Holidays (see calendar here — here’s how to set it up to only include relevant federal holidays)
- 8 weeks of paid parental leave
- Applies to biological (both birthing and non-birthing parents), adoptive, and foster parents to spend quality time for bonding with their new family member(s)!
Learning & Development
Our culture starts with our people and that’s why we invest heavily in making our people great. From day one, you can work with your manager to create a custom learning journey.
- Mentor or Advisor pairing outside of koodos — many of our team have opted to be paired with a mentor through First Round’s fast track program (https://fasttrack.firstround.com/)
- Professional memberships, associations, and clubs
