What's It Like to Work at Coupa?
Coupa Employee Perspectives
What does flexibility in the workplace look like for you? What practices/policies are in place that support it?
It means being able to take time during the workday to do things that need to be done during business hours, like taking pets to the vet and visiting the doctor. This is really critical for global organizations because I may need to join an early call with team members in Europe or a late call with those on the West Coast. Because I have flexibility, I can set my schedule to accomplish the work I need to get done.
Why is flexibility an important element of Coupa Software’s culture?
Being a global company, we must enable people to work across various time zones. And Coupa’s culture is such that I don’t have to work 15-hour days to do that.
What tools or meeting structures ensure that a flexible work setup works for everyone? Is there certain software you swear by, or informal happy hours that you love?
Zoom is critical, since everyone can be on a call simultaneously and turn on their cameras if desired. Being able to work asynchronously with shared documents is also incredibly important. These tools are pretty ubiquitous now, so we take them for granted.
