We've carefully planned and iterated on an onboarding that quickly equips you with the technical knowledge, remote friendships and tips and tricks you need to feel at home and do your best work at Aula.{linebreak}{linebreak}### How we think about remote 📱{linebreak}{linebreak}We see remote work as a creative constraint that forces us to think about what the ideal workplace looks like:{linebreak}{linebreak}> When 'mobile' became important, their small screens forced product managers, designers and engineers to rethink user interfaces - to remove clutter. This ended up affecting how people built desktop web pages. In the same way, remote work forces us to rethink work in a way that we think many standard office-based workplace could benefit from.{linebreak}{linebreak}### Benefits{linebreak}- **Personal development is part of being 'a high performer'.** You're supported in, and accountable for, your personal growth.
