Welcome to Inside Attivo, a multi-part series that follows the core values and practices that make Attivo Partners an exceptional place to work. In this series, we’ll explore important topics like flexibility, remote work, onboarding, professional development, and more. 

At Attivo, we are deeply committed to professional excellence, innovation, and fostering a supportive atmosphere for our team. Our values and policies are not just words on paper but the foundation of our success. Follow along as we share insights, testimonies, and stories that highlight how our culture enables our team members to thrive professionally and personally.   

Remote work can be a game-changer for employees and clients alike. When thoughtfully implemented, remote work makes employees' lives tangibly better while allowing for a higher quality of service to clients. At Attivo, we’ve seen how an intentional, well-designed remote work experience can strengthen culture, especially when bolstered by points of intentional in-person connection. 
 

Sustaining a Remote-First Culture

While Attivo is a remote organization, we believe in-person connections are an important part of building our team culture, and we plan our employee experiences and client engagements with this in mind. Our teams gather regionally each year for an onsite working session and annually as a firm for an offsite event to reinforce these values.   

"Attivo is bigger than a single employee and their clients. We are responsible for one another's success, and the way we build on that is through our shared time together," says Greg Capitolo, Co-Founder of Attivo. By blending best-in-class remote tools and an emerging in-person learning journey during a new hire's first 180 days, Attivo has designed an onboarding experience that ensures employees are effective in their work and connected in person when it matters most. 

Once onboarded, employees have access to unique programming and training opportunities, game nights, and co-working experiences. These are not just activities but intentional investments Attivo makes to foster a sense of belonging and create meaningful connections within the firm. 

Attivo's remote work model is strengthened by hiring close to strategic geographic hubs like the San Francisco Bay Area, Greater Los Angeles/San Diego, Austin, Nashville, Boston, and New York. We believe these cities allow Attivo to hire widely and still have accessible in-person connections. Employees can work alongside colleagues, grab lunch with peers, or find valuable collaboration opportunities. These touch points help Attivo to continually invest in its culture and people. 

 

Employees Enjoy a Better Quality of Life

A flexible work experience keeps employees happy, healthy and engaged. Whether taking care of family members or wanting to spend time living in another geographic location, Attivo's remote setup allows employees to enjoy the flexibility they need to meet the demands of their lives. 

"If someone wants to travel for four weeks around the US, they can do that. If someone needs to move home to take care of a loved one, that’s an option. Remote goes hand-in-hand with our fractional services model," says Greg. 

Attivo can retain talented people because of the flexibility a remote structure offers. Employees can set schedules that work for their lives and preferences as long as client needs are fully met. Because employees work with multiple clients, there are often natural gaps in the day to allow for this. 

Clients Enjoy a Higher Quality of Service 

By lifting geographic restrictions, Attivo hires from a wider talent pool with specialized expertise and more experience. Stronger hires and connected teams mean better service for our clients. A remote-first approach to work empowers Attivo’s teams to take a proactive, continuous approach to problem-solving.

Teams at Attivo use tools like Zoom, Slack, and Roam to connect seamlessly and increase efficiency. From digital meeting spaces to real-time problem-solving, teams can work together effectively regardless of location. This collaborative work style translates to enhanced service as the collective knowledge of Attivo is leveraged on behalf of the client.
