At Agoda, we know that flexibility fuels innovation. With employees from over 100 nationalities collaborating across the globe, our hybrid and remote work options empower teams to perform their best while maintaining a healthy work-life balance. Whether connecting in the office, working from home, or taking advantage of our Remote Work Program, flexibility is at the heart of how we work.
Building Together: The Value of Office Collaboration
Our hybrid work model strikes a balance between flexibility and connection. With two in-office days each week, Agodans have dedicated opportunities to brainstorm, share ideas, and collaborate face-to-face. This fosters creativity and teamwork while strengthening the relationships that make our teams thrive.
Our global offices are designed to be vibrant and welcoming spaces, equipped with everything from state-of-the-art meeting rooms to cozy breakout areas. We always make the most of our time spent together in person, with lots of events, pop-ups, and social gatherings happening in our offices all year round. Whether we’re enjoying an Ice Cream Day to beat the summer heat, or celebrating local festivals like Diwali and Songkran, these in-office days allow us to celebrate wins, solve challenges together, and stay aligned on our goals.
Flexible Work from Home: Productivity on Your Terms
The other three days? They’re yours to work from the comfort of your home. To help employees create an ideal work-from-home setup, Agoda provides a one-time Work from Home Allowance. This support ensures Agodans have a comfortable and productive environment, whether it’s for deep-focus tasks or team check-ins.
This flexibility allows employees to personalize their schedules, minimize commutes, and maintain the work-life balance needed to stay motivated and efficient. “Our hybrid model has done wonders for my stress and work-life balance,” shares Yurika Morita (Senior Product Manager). “My son goes to bed at seven. When I work from home, I can log off and be with him immediately instead of wasting time on my commute or getting home when he’s already asleep. That quality time is precious, especially when your child is very young.”
Balancing Efficiency and Well-being
To support our shift-based Customer Experience Group (CEG) agents, we’ve introduced a hybrid work model that strikes a balance between operational efficiency and employee well-being. Under this system, many of our agents work from the office for one week every two months, providing a structured yet flexible arrangement.
This approach ensures uninterrupted service coverage for our customers while allowing our agents to maintain a healthy work-life balance, reflecting our commitment to fostering a supportive and adaptable work environment.
Fully Remote Roles at Agoda: Opportunities for Global Professionals
Flexibility at Agoda isn’t one-size-fits-all. In some locations, fully remote positions are available. This setup is tailored for specific roles where employees work entirely from home, staying connected through digital collaboration tools and regular virtual check-ins.
For our global teams, this model not only supports diverse talent from different regions but also fosters an inclusive environment where innovative ideas flourish, no matter where employees are based.
Agoda’s Remote Work Program: Work from Anywhere
For greater flexibility, Agoda’s Remote Work Program enables our full-time employees to work from anywhere in the world for up to 30 calendar days each year. Initially launched as a way to help employees reunite with family during the pandemic, the program has evolved into a beloved benefit that empowers Agodans to travel, connect, and work flexibly.
This initiative not only allows employees to explore new destinations but also reinforces our values of trust and accountability. As Victoria Chan (Global Mobility Specialist) explains, “We respect that employees have personal obligations, and this is Agoda’s way of meeting that need.”
Flexibility Fuels Growth at Agoda
By offering a hybrid model and embracing fully remote opportunities for certain roles, Agoda ensures our employees can work in ways that suit them best. Combined with the Remote Work Program that enables working from anywhere for up to 30 days a year, flexible work at Agoda isn’t just a perk—it’s a core part of how we support our teams and drive success.
