Work hours

Company-wide standard work hours are from 9-6pm in your local timezone, however, this may vary by department (i.e. Customer Support) or case-by-case with manager approval. To help accommodate differences in timezones, company-wide and department-level meetings are scheduled between the hours of 11am and 5pm Eastern Time whenever possible.

Addresses
