Bearer's co-founders Guillaume and Cédric are big advocates for remote work. Both have written about the advantages and challenges in the past on the Bearer Blog, but today I want to share some thoughts from our team on what it's like working for a distributed, fully remote company. A few main trends came up. Some expected, and a few surprising.
A couple of weeks ago, I attended the P9 Founder Summit in Malta organized by Point Nine Capital. One of the workshops was about remote work. Soon after, I led a webinar for the #p9family and I thought I would share our experience at Bearer thus far.
At Bearer, we’ve been crafting a remote-first company since day one. Not only are we remote-first, we are, in fact, a multi-regional, multi-cultural, multi-lingual, remote-first company, something even more unique! Since we’ve been running the company this way for more than a year now, we took this as a good opportunity to reflect on the culture and process we've built, hopefully answering some questions you may have about remote-first companies too.
