The Geniuslink family

Our goal is to ensure that every interaction we have, no matter how long or brief, leaves everyone involved better off for having had it. We are a tight-knit and hard working team and we pride ourselves in creating a diverse and supportive workplace and culture, in order to help each team member excel and be their best selves.

• Flex Fridays: Work-life balance is incredibly important to us, and since the COVID-19 pandemic we have reexamined how and when we work. Over the past two years, we have experimented with a “Flex Fridays” work schedule, where no mandatory meetings, no check-ins, and no contact is scheduled on Fridays. This gives everyone the opportunity to wrap up any unfinished work for the week with no outside distractions, work on their own professional development, run errands, or even get an early start to their weekend if everything is all finished up. And because of the strong mutual trust our team has built, this has proven to be a great way to give everyone the freedom to manage their time in a way that works best for them while still ensuring that the necessary work is being completed.Note: As part of the Client Success team, this position will be added into our round robin style “Fire Watch” on Fridays to ensure we still have support coverage for our clients.
• More to Life than Work – As a team we all work incredibly hard, and we greatly pride ourselves on the work we do every day. In turn, this hard work earns everyone on the team flexibility. We understand that there is more to life than just work, and we also know the importance of stepping away from the computer. So as long as the work is being done, we encourage everyone on our team to step away, to take advantage of Flex Fridays, to take time off to spend with family and friends, and to get outdoors and recharge – If you want to get a run in during lunch, the team has your back… just please try not to get hurt!
• Team Events: We believe it is important to celebrate our accomplishments. Past events have included painting classes, BBQs, bowling, and axe throwing. Due to COVID-19, team events have changed with social distancing in mind. Recent events have included an online paella cooking class with a world class chef, a virtual escape room/trivia night, as well as a cocktail making class. In January 2021, Geniuslink bought the team Oculus Quest 2 headsets, and VR game nights have also been a fun way to connect while we’re all physically separated. Update: in 2022, our team is currently working to re-imagine team events in a post-COVID world. If you are excited about that, you could help shape what this looks like.
