We strongly believe in sustainable high performance by our team. To enable this, we understand our employees need a good balance of taking time to recharge. Our flexible paid time off (PTO) aka vacation policy lets employees flexibly manage how they take time off as long as they are able to effectively get their work done and balance the needs of their team.

Here are some guidelines and asks to ensure the two-way street between Codans and managers remain open to have the flexibility to recharge, whilst ensuring our team’s goals keep moving.
Confirm approval from your manager. Please receive approval (over slack, email, or 1-1) from your manager on your PTO requests to ensure there is appropriate team and work coverage. Depending on the situation, you and your manager should be ready to discuss alternative options on when the time offworks better.
Give sufficient notice to coordinate time off with your team. While you should always confirm approval and communicate with your team ahead of time on your PTO plans, the longer you anticipate being out (e.g. >1 week), please raise that as soon as you can (e.g. at least 2 weeks in advance), so your manager and team can best plan.
Be mindful about our critical business time periods. For example, product launches or end of quarters, esp. for our GTM orgs, may be more crucial times where team coverage is particularly needed. We need Codans online and need to be strategic about time off.
Communicate your time off Include on your personal calendar. Add the relevant groups to the invite (i.e manager, team members) or put on your team calendar. Set your Slack status to reflect that you’ll be out of office 🌴.
