Our ways of working
Our office vibe
Our office is built for flexibility. With hot desks, a clear desk policy, and shared respect for the space, Canaries can drop in, collaborate, or find focus whenever they need.
We keep meetings to a minimum. At Yellow Canary, asynchronous is the default, and we use tools like Slack and Notion to collaborate efficiently.
Maintaining team spirit
We stay connected through regular online team meetings and bring everyone together in person for quarterly team days across Australia to align on goals and build stronger connections.
Transparency matters in a hybrid team. We make our work easy to follow and pick up, share updates in public Slack channels, and avoid losing info in DMs or side chats.
