Our goal with the redesign is to make it easier for every Canadian to reach theirs. ✨ What’s new ✨ 🎨 Bolder colours. Easier navigation   The goal with the redesign is to help Canadians progress towards their financial goals faster. New bolder colours have been chosen to amplify contrast, making it easier to find what you’re looking for.

    We’re all in on remote work, and it’s just one of the many reasons that make working at KOHO so special.

    KOHO is not going back to the office. Two things are missing from the debate; The value exchange of remote is very different if you’re not in SF/NY. We have access to execs we never could have hired if we were constrained to local markets. There are definitely times when it’s beneficial to be in the same room but it’s not all the time, and it’s certainly not 'min 3 days a week'. There are times when it's super helpful (kickoffs, retros, firefights etc) and there are times when it's marginally negative. We're trying to be precise about this. Our model; Our exec team gets together every 6 weeks for a 2-3 day offsite. We use this time to jam, plan and connect. We’re gradually washing pods through so most/all teams are staffed locally. Regional owners are expected to organize coworking during key moments. As folks turnover, we’ll increasingly backfill locally. Fully ramped we should have ~10 satellite offices based on local teams and they’ll get together, as needed (probably 3-5 times a quarter). And quiet part out loud; there are a lot of young parents at KOHO. I see my kids 10x more than if I were commuting every day and I think that’s true for many of our folks. That’s worth a lot to me. Even if we accept the premise that it means we’ll grow slower (I don’t), that time is worth a couple points on growth. We're not going back 🤷♂️
