Audible is committed to the People Principles and walks the walk. They have provided so many resources during the last year to help us get through the pandemic and the series of social crises. Everything from more time off, flexible schedules, mental health support and trainings, and even a session with doctors to understand COVID and vaccines.

Cons

Work loads are a lot, even with the flexibility, expectations are for constant producing
