The finance team generally works 1 day (Wednesdays) at the satellite office in Arlington, Washington, and the rest of the week at home. [Note that designated in-office days are required and this is not a position for an out-of-state applicant to consider. Initial onboarding/training will likely require more upfront days in-office.] Once training is complete, you will have the opportunity to tailor your schedule to best fit your lifestyle and preferences in general alignment with the company’s business hours (Monday through Friday, between the hours of 7am and 5pm PST).
