Are you a calm company?

At Calm.jobs we champion a new way of working — one that values balance, sustainability, and a peaceful work environment. We believe that productivity doesn't have to come at the expense of well-being. If you resonate with this philosophy, you might just be the kind of company our platform and community are looking for.

Assess your company against the following criteria to see if you align with the calm company ethos:

Do's:

  • Embrace flexibility: Offer flexible work hours or remote working options.
  • Prioritize mental health: Provide mental health days and support resources.
  • Encourage time-off: Have a generous vacation policy and encourage employees to use it.
  • Value asynchronous communication: Reduce real-time meetings in favor of asynchronous communication.
  • Promote work-life balance: Actively encourage a healthy balance between work and personal life.
  • Transparent and open communication: Practice open communication channels and transparent company policies.
  • Offer professional growth: Provide opportunities for skill development and career progression that don't necessarily lead to management.

Don'ts:

  • Mandatory overtime: Regular overtime should not be a part of your work culture.
  • Overemphasis on rapid scaling: Avoid the "grow at all costs" mentality.
  • Frequent high-stress deadlines: High-pressure deadlines should be the exception, not the norm.
  • 24/7 availability: Employees shouldn't be expected to be available around the clock.
  • Micromanagement: Trust in your employees' skills and autonomy.
  • Neglecting employee feedback: Employee suggestions and feedback should be valued and addressed.

Are you a calm company? If you find your values reflected in these criteria, we would be delighted to have you on board. By joining Calm.jobs, you’ll be part of a growing movement that is reshaping the future of work - one job at a time.
