At Quora, we believe that talent knows no borders. As a remote-first company, we're committed to diversity and inclusivity in our hiring practices. Our global team is made up of talented individuals from all corners of the world, united by a shared passion for innovation and collaboration.
Asia-Pacific
We're proud to have employees representing three different countries within the APAC region: Bangladesh, India, South Korea, and Thailand. Whether you're based in one of these countries or another part of the region, we prioritize accommodating your time zone to ensure inclusivity and foster a strong sense of community. Our APAC teams cover a range of functions, from Sales and Customer Success to Engineering and more.
In addition to our virtual interactions, we recognize the importance of in-person connections for our India-based employees. That's why we've established dedicated physical workspaces specifically for our Sales team, providing them with the flexibility to work seamlessly from both the office and their homes.
Europe, Middle East, & Africa
We're thrilled to have a diverse workforce in the EMEA region, representing countries such as Ireland, Egypt, Estonia, Germany, Nigeria, Poland, and the United Kingdom. Our EMEA teams cover crucial functions like Engineering, Product Operations, Sales, and People, ensuring a well-rounded approach to achieving our goals.
While working from different time zones can present challenges, we've found that it also brings unique opportunities for collaboration and knowledge sharing. By aligning with our company-wide coordination hours of 9am to 3pm Pacific Time, our EMEA employees gain the advantage of overlapping with our NA and APAC teams, providing ample opportunities for cross-functional collaboration.
North America
We're proud to have a thriving employee base in North America, encompassing the United States, Canada, Mexico, and Costa Rica. Our NA teams cover a wide range of functions crucial to our success, including Customer Success, Engineering, Finance, People, and more.
Quora was founded in Mountain View, CA, where we have a dedicated office space for employees who prefer working in a physical setting. This provides the opportunity for in-person collaboration, fostering stronger connections and seamless teamwork. While we embrace remote work flexibility, having an office space allows our employees to experience the benefits of face-to-face interactions and the energy of a shared workspace if they so choose.
With the majority of our company residing in the NA region, you'll likely find yourself surrounded by fellow employees in close proximity. This proximity offers exciting opportunities to connect, whether it's meeting up for social gatherings or collaborating in person at nearby coworking venues. The presence of colleagues in your vicinity enhances the sense of community and allows for meaningful interactions both inside and outside of work.
As one of our EMEA team members shares, "Because of coordination hours, I generally have most of the morning to pursue whatever I like. I can be flexible with my schedule, go to the gym, hang out with friends, have lunch, or do whatever I need to do when I need to do it."
