    Who says we're all work and no play?
    The good thingsAthena in a nutshell offers a remote setup with flexible working hours. What else? The company promotes work-life balance and mental health awareness. Also, there are a lot of growth opportunities. I love how we have a supportive community despite working remotely.
    The challengesNone as I'm enjoying my work with the company.

    It's the best time to join Athena
    The good thingsGreat culture that's supportive and holds you accountable at the same time. Company has improved so much in the past months in terms of benefits (Macbook equipment, pet support, best-in-class HMO, retirement plan). Company invests in getting people together (Boracay General Assembly last March 2022)
    The challengesChanges are frequent because it is a startup and things have to evolve as the team grows.

    The good thingsI love the training they gave me. I love the concern and support they give to ensure employees' welfare. I
    The challengesThe training is very hard. You have to learn by doing. It was great but nerve-wrecking.

    Excellent Matching for amazing EA-Client Relationship
    The good thingsThey provide amazing training- complete with playbooks (or commonly known as modules lol) and a 4-hour class with a trainer. After, it might take a while for you to be matched with a client, but Athena allows you to side barge with other EAs to learn with them and also to earn money at the same time. The client I was matched with was highly communicative and transparent with me. He gives me honest feedback and constructive criticisms.
    The challengesThe internet connection in the Philippines lol.

    Provides genuine work-life balance
    The good thingsAfter working for more than a decade in several different companies, it was only in Athena that I found genuine work-life balance.
    The challengesNothing glaring at the moment. The company is very transparent about its shortcomings and addresses them in company-wide meetings. Definitely not perfect but there's continuous improvement.

    Work-life win everyday!
    The good thingsAthena has afforded me the work-life balance that I have been looking for in my whole career. Athena provides me the daily satisfaction and fulfillment of work and I get to spend so much daily quality time with my kid right after my shift.
    The challengesThe main challenge would really be on how I am able to manage and compartmentalize the work that I do at home and the roles that I have outside work while being at home. But, so far, Athena has been very supportive and understanding.
