Flexible work hours

- Daily cooked lunches and a stocked kitchen for the mid-day nibbles

- Tell everyone about it
- Fix the mistake
- Tell everyone about it
- You are responsible for your actions – both the successes and the failures
- We talk openly about salaries and bonuses. At Electrum we believe it’s evident why some people earn more and others a bit less. It’s like being on a sports team where salaries are widely known.
