Meetings#

Being a fully remote and global company, our opportunities to get together as a team are highly valued. To support the collaboration and culture of our global team, we hold frequent remote meetings designed to bring people together and benefit in sharing and receiving the same information at the same time, in a personal manner.

Workstream Team meetings#

All workstreams will have at least weekly team meetings, in which you get together and discuss ongoing topics, tasks, blockages, OKRs etc. However working remotely we also use our meetings to connect with each other socially, and build and maintain team rapport.

Handovers/Standups#

As we operate 24/7, we “follow the sun” and have teams in 3 main timezone regions (APAC, EMEA and AMER). We tend to structure a lot of our team meetings to allow for two time zones to meet at once. In some roles and workstreams, such as Platform or Support, this will mean that you’ll start your day with a handover meeting from one region, and end it by giving an update to a team in another region.

Where applicable, such handover/stand up meetings are planned for 30 minutes each, and cover work that has been done during the day and blockers that you need help with, or anything that would require the attention or input from wider team members, such as escalting ticket assignment, or brainstorming solutions to team tasks and issues.

After that, there is usually time to discuss further things that came up during the first 15 minutes that might need more insights. After the first part of the standup wraps people are free to leave.

While we all are in different timezones and Daylight Saving Time is a fact in many locations. Dates and Times might shift around, and differ per workstream.

Staff Meetings#

A meeting every two weeks, with the attendance and time of this meeting being rotated each occasion, to accommodate 2 of our 3 time zones (e.g. APAC & EMEA / AMER & APAC, EMEA & AMER, at any one staff meeting)

At the staff meeting we discuss personal highlights (vacations, personal achievements, sharing achievements of loved ones etc.), hiring updates, any relevant updates from each workstream that may have a wider impact, and workstream highlights.

All-Hearts Meetings#

This is a quarterly meeting whereby all of amazee.io come together to share company updates, plans, OKR updates, challenges, and successes. This also includes a Q&A for management, which team members can anonymously add questions for prior to the meeting. This meeting is for all time zones.

For those who can’t attend, do not fear, All Hearts meetings and Staff Meetings are recorded for the benefit of non-attendees, with the recording then being shared to the company wide Slack channel.

Leads Meeting#

  • Business operations & strategic discussion
