With Flex Work, we're combining the best of both worlds: in-person time and remote.
Our approach enables our teams to deepen connections, maintain a strong community, and do their best work.
We know that flexibility can take shape in many ways, so rather than a number of required days in-office each week, we simply spend at least half (50%) of our time each quarter in the office or in the field with our customers, prospects, and partners (depending on role).

Our Approach to Flexible Work
This means you'll have the freedom to create a flexible schedule that caters to your business, team, and personal needs, while being intentional to make the most of time spent together.
Those in our remote "home office" roles also have the opportunity to come together in our offices for important moments that matter.

Your work matters here.
Our work supports U.S. federal agencies as they modernize and transform the full employee lifecycle experience and finance operations-so they can operate with greater clarity, accountability, and trust.
The work isn't theoretical.
It's operational.
It's high-impact.
And it demands rigor, integrity, and long-term thinking.
From day one, you'll be part of a team that values collaboration, follow-through, and doing the right thing-especially when the stakes are high.
Our culture is grounded in integrity, respect, and shared responsibility.
Here, curiosity is matched with accountability.
Ambition is paired with trust.
