We are an in-office company, and our expectation is that full-time employees primarily work from their Applied Intuition office 5 days a week.

This may include occasional remote work, starting the day with morning meetings from home before heading to the office, or leaving earlier when needed to accommodate family commitments.

This in-office expectation does not apply to contractor positions
