Instead, we follow our own professional levels, with expectations for each level clearly defined across several dimensions.\n\n* We are a small, remote team distributed across time zones, and we rely on a variety of communication tools throughout the day. You should feel comfortable with the intricacies of this type of work situation.\n\n* Sometimes we meet up! Expect to travel at least two times a year: once for our all-hands meetup and again for a team retreat (each ~4-5 days).\n\n* We believe in a focused approach to collaboration, where individual team members work on a single top priority at a time, each supporting larger, company-wide objectives. This philosophy serves to impact our vision to raise the standard of trust online.\n\n* Our work philosophy centers on empowered project management. All team members have opportunities to run projects.\n\n* Transparency supports individual and team success at DuckDuckGo.
