📗 Two Real Humans on Working with Hacker Noon during the Annus Horribilis
The year 2020, began with a dire forecast and business was a bit on the slower side during Q1. However, we tried out new collaterals and mediums (Ad by tags and Learn tab) that also brought us new learnings. All in all, I kinda feel smug saying that 2020 was a good year for us and for me. We nailed resilience, focus, and teamwork.
Thank you for the regular reminders to take care of ourselves, and normalizing taking a mental health day now and again — Hacker Noon was truly an island of happiness and relaxation in 2020's sea of shit and stress. Oh, and THANK YOU for my new Yeti mic, my new AirPods, and for helping me out with my Macbook. (!) 🤗
And since you're here... 🥳Happy 2021 from the team! (In various languages — with varying levels of success! 🤣)

🥬 more fun facets of life at Hacker Noon:
- Pandemic-Proof: During the year Covid-19 took hold, most of our employees got a generous raise. We also tripled ad revenue for the third year running, and doubled the size of our Editorial Team.
- Lean: We have never had more than 20 people and aspire to always remain that way. Our ideal model is that of Craigslist, a company worth over $1 billion with just 50 employees 😉
- Challenging (in a positive, non-exhausting way): Since we are such a small team, every single member is an high-level contributor to the business. You'll have all the freedom to create your own initiatives and be your own boss 😎
- Remote-First: We practically invented WFH ✌️ Since we've been fully remote from day 1, our culture is geared towards it. Things you won't find here include suspicion, guilt trips, or admin-intensive hourly tracking reports.
- Fun (no but really.): We strongly value work-life balance, and encourage all employees to take breaks often. We also have an unlimited vacation policy. 🏖️
- Creativity and Commitment: We try to our best to live up to two principles. 1: Your mindset fingerprints every interaction your work will have with the world; and 2: When you really commit to your words, you command respect.
- Diverse: Especially compared to industry standard — and by default so — Hacker Noon is currently:
- Colorado, & the World Wide Web: Our HQ is in rural Colorado. Our people, contributors, readers, and brand partners are worldwide.
