Location & Team Gatherings
Intersect has been a fully flexible workplace since its founding in 2016. We’ve
been very intentional about the way we do things. We are not work-from-home,
hybrid, or in-office – we are any and all of those options! Deepening social
connections and offering shared experiences is a cornerstone of the way we work.
We connect as a team at our Team Week experiences four times a year and at our
recently established Hub locations - SF Bay Area, NYC Metro Area, NY; Denver,
CO; Houston, TX; Calgary, AB; and Toronto, ON.
We are currently seeking candidates located within 60 miles of any of the listed
hubs to foster more in-person connections while maintaining our flexible remote
culture.
