Company benefits
- Profit Sharing: Every 12 months, we put aside a portion of profit earned throughout the year to be distributed to every member, through a simple calculation based on the overall team efficiency throughout the year, and time that each team member has been with Sanctuary
- 100% Healthcare, Dental & Vision: Unlike most US companies, we offer at least one of our four healthcare plans at 100% employer coverage (no cost to the employee). This usually means a saving of 3 - 6K USD a year for the individual!
- Freedom Fridays: In the spirit of Yvon Chouinard’s “Let My People Go Surfing”, the last Friday of every month is a day off. We think that well rested, calm and thoughtful team members make far better decisions, and 12 extra long weekends each year helps everyone stay focused
- A TON of Time Off: We take 15 days PTO, 7 days sick and mental health leave, all major US holidays, the last Friday of every month, and we close between Christmas & New Years, making for 40+ paid days off each year
- 150% Carbon Negative: Our studio offsets 150% of the carbon we use to do business each year, dated back to our founding in 2015. We turn down work that is not in-line with our morals, and we encourage our peers to do the same. [We were certified climate neutral in 2021]
- Strong Morals: Last year we turned down somewhere between $200k - $300K of work that didn't meet our moral standards. (Most of that was DTC brands that can't show a valid sustainability initiative)
- Generous Parental Leave Policy: We give new parents 4 months paid leave, and make no distinction between primary and secondary care givers
- Async & Decentralized: We use tools optimized for calm, thoughtful communication, and opt for async whenever possible. We fight hard to maintain our focus time
- Choose your own Timezone & Work Hours: We don't mind where or when you work. Just look out for your team, get your work done, and make your meetings
- Candidates based outside of the US are hired as contractors and paid in USD. Please check your home country's labor and tax laws and understand what this may entail
- Remote Friendly: In the wake of COVID-19, our company has transitioned to remote working, and in the process have evolved to make our workplace more decentralized, and democratized in the process
- Optional 401k: Our payroll provider integrations with Slavic401k to provide Sanctuary employees a way to save for retirement, without all that tax
- Optional 4-Day Employment: Prefer to work 4 day weeks? Opt in at 80% of our salary and benefits
- Transparency & Ownership: We release out Profit & Loss statements to the community each year, open source our best ideas, and talk business & money with everyone in the company. We’re proud to run our business with integrity, and for that reason we share everything with our team & community
- Ideas & Products: In our spare studio time, we work to build our own open source or internal products to diversify & bolster our income. We create amazing technology products for our clients, so why not for the studio?
