<li><strong>Location Independent, Above-Market Salary.</strong> To reduce bias and increase transparency, we compute all salaries <a href="https://blog.gruntwork.io/how-we-hire-at-gruntwork-42193d583e24">using formulas</a>.

<li><strong>Personal Budget.</strong> We'll give you a personal budget of $1,000 USD per month to spend on your workspace (e.g., a co-working space), health (e.g., gym, yoga), time (e.g., babysitter), and/or learning (e.g., books, courses).</li>
