I just started working for Patreon so it might be a bit early but I love the culture, and it has many of those traits. I have also studied building cultures for my own previous startups before and they do a lot right.

- Encouraged PTO (they suggest one week a quarter) - A lot of quiet / introversion rooms as well as space to be chatty - Full normal health benefits AND mental health benefits (emotional counseling) - Mental health days are totally accepted - People WFH as they need (though encouraged to be in the office) - A large personal development stipend ($3K/yr)

----------------

They also provide a lot of other aspects that I think play into the culture, but really it's the people that make it for me. Everyone really cares about the mission.

That does sound pretty great. After your studies in culture building, what sort of things do you look for in a company?
