We have embraced a distributed model of working to reach the best talent in the world.

Benefits at Athennian
We’re a remote-first company built on trust, autonomy, and accountability. With that flexibility comes responsibility — we’re a lean team where everyone is expected to bring their full effort and expertise. We believe in real work-life balance: every employee starts with a minimum of three weeks of vacation, five sick days, and six personal or flex days, plus a company-wide winter holiday shutdown so everyone can rest and recharge together.
Our benefits are designed to support your well-being in meaningful ways. You’ll have access to comprehensive health, dental, and vision coverage, long-term disability, accidental death & dismemberment, an Employee Assistance Program, and a Health Spending Account to help cover additional expenses. We also offer flexible parental leave benefits, including options for top-ups or additional paid time off — because family matters. And to help you get set up for success from day one, we provide a work-from-home allowance.
