DigitalOcean is a values-driven company that has transitioned to a remote-first organization during the COVID-19 pandemic. To ensure employees maintain a healthy work-life balance and take time off, they implemented Sammy Recharge Days, where the entire company takes days off throughout the year. This approach has led to increased productivity, reduced attrition, and positive employee feedback. In addition to these recharge days, DigitalOcean offers unlimited PTO, parental benefits, access to mental health applications, a wellness stipend, and generous healthcare plans. The company is expanding its holiday calendar in 2022 and beyond to recognize holidays of significance to different religions and cultures.
