What People Are Saying About Block
-
Remote or Hybrid Flexibility: Company materials describe a “distributed work” setup where most roles can be remote, office, or hybrid by choice, which helps keep day‑to‑day load more controllable when managers support it. Flexible location options are explicitly highlighted on the benefits page.
-
Time Off Access: U.S. benefits specify Flexible Time Off for exempt employees, structured PTO for non‑exempt, plus paid holidays and sick leave, enabling real downtime. The company frames this as taking the time needed to recharge.

Mental Health Support: Access to Lyra sessions and caregiver supports provides safety valves when workload spikes. Mental‑health resources are positioned as part of a broader wellbeing offering.
