AKASA Work-Life Balance & Wellbeing
Frequently Asked Questions
At AKASA, flexibility and connection go hand in hand.
We operate with a hybrid model designed to give employees autonomy in how they work while continuing to make in-person time genuinely valuable. For team members near our hubs in the Bay Area, Denver, and New York City, we host regular co-working days and quarterly “Hub Days” that bring energy and momentum to the office. We also fully support our remote AKASAns.
In our offices, we invest intentionally to make that time meaningful. Offices are fully stocked, and lively with team working sessions, cross-functional collaboration, and space for organic connection. We provide lunch during the day and often host dinners or happy hours afterward, from TopGolf outings and MLB games to seasonal events like visiting the Rockefeller Center Christmas tree.
At the same time, employees have real flexibility in their day-to-day schedules. In 2025, 96% of employees said they’re able to work in a way that works for them. Clear goals, supportive managers, and strong communication norms ensure flexibility drive performance, with 2025 being our best year yet.
We believe people can only do their best work when they feel fully supported, and as a healthcare company, we also recognize the importance of all kinds of health.
We provide comprehensive mental health support through Spring Health, which gives employees and their dependents access to therapy, coaching, and dedicated Care Navigators who help match them with the right provider.
We’ve also expanded our benefits to support major life moments and reduce stress in meaningful ways. Through Carrot, employees have access to inclusive fertility and family-forming support. For pet parents, we offer insurance and wellness plans through Fetch and Wagmo to help cover both routine and unexpected care. These benefits recognize that wellbeing extends beyond the individual.
Connection is another key part of mental health. As a distributed company, we invest intentionally in bringing people together. Twice a year, we host fully funded company-wide off-sites focused on alignment, recognition, and relationship-building. Throughout the year, our Hub Days create opportunities for in-person collaboration and informal connection. In 2025, 96% of employees said they feel comfortable asking teammates for help, which is a strong signal of psychological safety and supportive culture.
We also regularly run engagement and pulse surveys, treat culture as a company-level priority, and adjust when feedback tells us we can do better. 95% of employees say they feel supported by their manager, and 92% say AKASA is a great place to work.
At AKASA, supporting health is built into our benefits, our leadership expectations, and the way we show up for one another every day.
