From coffee allowances to 9 day fortnight's, these are our studio perks.
At Noise, we live, and then we work, with a great amount of passion — and it should never have to be any other way. We value teammates who live rich and rounded lives, and have created an environment that helps us do just that
Here are the studio benefits that we offer all our full time employees. We’d love to hear what you think! Anything you would add? Comment below.
01. 100% Remote | Work from anywhere
One of our key perks is the freedom to work whenever and wherever you want. We’re talking total flexibility here, folks! The best part? You can ditch the traditional office space because we’re all about being location-independent.
02. Macbook Pro
We offer all our full-timers a sleek new MacBook Pro to get their work groove on from the get-go.
03. Co-working allowance
We’re all about fostering connections, igniting creative inspiration, and staying social. Being part of a co-working space mean’s we’re not confined to WFH.
04. Coffee budget
For our teammates who prefer working from cozy cafes rather than traditional co-working spaces. (We sometimes sub in coffee for an end of day beer too).
05. Movement allowance
One of our core values is to take time to explore and spend time outdoors. It’s why we work with so many brands in this space! We encourage our team to step away from the screen and take a break to hike, swim, run, or do any form of exercise.
06. Magazine subscription
It’s important to stay current with society, politics, and the ever-evolving trends that shape our world. We believe that being well-informed empowers us to make better decisions, contribute meaningfully, and engage with the world around us.
07. Tech & officeequipment
Remote working shouldn’t mean uncomfortable chairs, which is why all our full timers get an allowance to make sure their home office is properly set up.
08. Skills & Training
We’re committed to investing in our employees craft and expanding their knowledge, so we’re signed up to a bunch of cool courses and always open to sending our team to conferences around the world!
09. Signing Accountancy Allowance
As we’re all self-employed in our countries of residence, we offer a one-time accountancy allowance upon starting at Noise.
10. Pro Bono Studio Projects
We donate studio time and resources to engage in pro-bono work with individuals and organisations dedicated to taking care of our planet and striving for a better future.
11. 1% for the planet
We donate 1% of our profit to the planet every year. We firmly believe that businesses have a responsibility to contribute positively to the environment, and that’s why we’re dedicated to making this annual donation.
12. Cora the Coral
We’re proud parents of Cora the Coral. We adopted her back in 2019. With our adoption, the Coral Gardeners team will be able to repopulate the reef with resilient fragments of super corals ready to take on climate change 🪸💗
13. We’re on the road to becoming B-Corp
We’re currently on a journey towards achieving B-Corp status, demonstrating our commitment to nurturing workers, communities, and our planet in a positive way.
14. Yearly bonus opportunities
If our profits keep growing year after year, we’ll distribute a percentage of that growth to the team that year.
15. Yearly studio retreat
Once a year, we get together for an epic studio retreat. It’s an event we hold dear because it gives us a chance to be in the same place, face-to-face, for an entire week. Last year was Mexico… this year we’re heading to Vietnam!
We believe that the best creative work is the result of a fun and playful environment. We know that to come up with brilliant ideas, we need space to think. To design epic work, we need time to mess around. To turn up every day with creative energy, we sometimes need to step away from our screens and stare at the clouds for a bit. Creativity requires inspiration, and we get more of that from being out in the world than we do from scrolling through Pinterest (no offense, Pinterest).
What are some of the things that make work more inspiring, creative and fun for you?
If you are a brand or business experiencing change or growth (or if you’re just doing something pretty awesome), we would love to hear from you. We are not for everyone. And that’s a good thing.
Noise Studio is an international creative agency working at the intersection of digital and branding. We create unexpected design solutions for some of the most exciting names in sports, outdoors and sustainability.
