Envato has just been covered on the popular “Bootstrapped, Profitable and Proud” series on Signal vs Noise, the 37Signals Company Blog.

Here’s a quote:

What is your work environment like?
We have a very flexible work culture that is focused on putting good, smart people in positions where they have responsibility and trusting them to do a great job. What the ‘work’ actually looks like is much less important to us.

This attitude is in no small part derived from the fact that over half our staff are remote, so frankly who knows how and when they work. What is important then is that they do a stellar job. If that’s accomplished in an hour a day while wearing their underwear on their head, well who am I to say that’s not an awesome way to work?

That inspired lots of comments, jokes, and a photo on Yammer, our team’s social network.
