<h4>Compatible time zones</h4>
120-
<p>
121-
You'll be working with a team in the <strong>US time zones</strong>, so you can be located in almost any
122-
country as long as your time zone is no further west than Los Angeles (GMT-8/GMT-7) and no further east than New
123-
York (GMT-5/GMT-4). We've found that when everyone on the team is located in similar time zones, it's easier to
124-
collaborate and there's much less pressure to stay up late or get up early, so this is a hard constraint, even if
125-
you're willing to work hours different from your current time zone.
