Before the pandemic, Cimpress, the parent company of Vista, the design and marketing partner to small businesses<\/a>, was a remote-averse company with a very office-centric culture. But during the global lockdown, our teams began to realise the many benefits of working remotely \u2013 and<\/em> continued to deliver on our objectives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the strength of that successful remote experience, in August 2020 we began our transition to be a permanent remote-first company. That doesn\u2019t mean we\u2019re remote-only<\/a>. Our culture is built upon shared moments, and there are some things that are still done best in person. That\u2019s why we evolved our real estate strategy to convert existing office space that was designed for an office-centric culture into remote-friendly collaboration centers across the world. As part of that strategy, we have an office fit for 250 team members at WeWork 501 Boylston Street<\/a> in Boston, and provide some of our global team members elsewhere with WeWork All Access<\/a> memberships.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n
