Compensation

All the nice stuff you get

"Don't set compensation as a goal. Find work you like, and the compensation will follow." Harding Lawrence

We strive for a fair and effective compensation strategy. This implies several things:

We believe your compensation should be based on your experience, abilities, and the impact you have at Astrafy.
All employees should have the right to ask for Astrafy equity after being for one year in the company (see details below).

Equity through Stock Options (optional)

As part of your compensation, you will get the opportunity on your first yearly evaluation (ie on your "one-year" anniversary) to join the company equity through stock options. This will be via a standard 2-year cliff and a total vesting period of 4 years with a yearly vesting schedule. Broadly, the amount of options will depend on your role and experience.

In case you prefer to stay away from our equity, this is totally fine as well and we will then discuss an additional tailored bonus plan to compensate.

Relocating

If you plan to relocate permanently, your salary will be adjusted (up or down) to reflect the cost of living in your new location.

If this adjustment represents an increase in pay, we will need to approve the change in advance; we cannot always guarantee that our budget will allow the pay increase.

We care about our planet

We are all concerned about the ecological challenges our world is facing. At Astrafy we are on our own acting as much as we can with small acts such as recycling, relying mainly on public transportation and limiting our travels by working remotely as much as possible.

As a very concrete action we offer two trees to every new employee that join our team.

We stay away from lawyers

Your work contract will be plain and simple and will not include any non-competitive clauses. If you want to leave, it is your choice and we will accompany you on your new journey instead of trying to fight it with non-sense clauses. We are convinced our alumni will play a key role in our growth.
