Working Hours
If you need flexibility occasionally with start times, that is ok, but please let me know. It is also acceptable for you to take off some time throughout the day and return later if necessary. However please consider any work that may be a priority or have a deadline.
Keeping In Contact
Whenever you are ‘working’ you are required to be logged into Skype<\/a>\/Slack<\/a> with your @yourdomain.com address. If you are going to be ‘away’ for an extended period you should notify me via email if I am not online to chat with. It is assumed that you are at your desk working throughout the day.
Using DropBox
All files you work on will be stored on DropBox<\/a>. If you are working on a new project or client and there is not a directory, please create one. For our designers, be sure to save your PSD files in this location as well.
Communication
Communication is the most crucial aspect of working within our team. Since we are a remote group, working collaboratively, communication needs to be 100%. You can never email, or instant message me too much! If you are late for work, sick, or anything similar you must let me know, with as much notice as possible.
Priorities
Each morning I will email you a list of assigned tasks in priority order. Please pay particular attention to the order, even if you have tasks left undone from the previous day.<\/p>\r\n<\/h2>\r\nSo you've\u00a0found the perfect employee.
