    The hot take Jeff's read on Automattic

    They tend to like to play musical chairs with their opening lines, but they'll always have a top spot in our hearts no matter what they throw in there. Check out the latest:

    We’re 1,458 Automatticians in 82 countries speaking 110 languages. We democratize publishing and commerce so anyone with a story can tell it, and anyone with a product can sell it, regardless of income, gender, politics, language, or country.

    Duh. I mean, c'mon. I told you I was already in, you don't have to sell me more.

    Oh you know very well that I'm a sucker for company who values output over location and hours, and here I am again, blushing with happiness. From Automattic's website:

    • "We care about the work you produce, not just the hours you put in."

    If that's not enough teasing, check out their awesome perks package:

    🏝️ Unlimited PTO: "Our open vacation policy (no set number of days per year) is designed to help you to be at your best! There is no minimum or maximum, but we encourage you to take at least 25 days of time off per year."

    🌍 Hire-from-anywhere: Automattic will hire prospective employees from anywhere aside from North Korea, Cuba, Iran, Syria, Sudan, and the Crimean region of Ukraine.

    💰Geo-neutral pay: Automattic provides salary ranges that are global, regardless of location, and they pay in local currency.

    💪 Health and wellness: “We offer mental wellness benefits including an Employee Assistance Program, a monthly subscription to a mindfulness app (including Calm, Headspace, Ten Percent Happier, Waking up, and Insight timer), and virtual ergonomic consultations and access to a wealth of virtual ergonomic tips, stretch videos and yoga exercises."

    📚 Learning budget: "I will never stop learning” is part of our company creed. From leadership development to improving your writing skills, we have a comprehensive list of programs and resources available to everyone."
