Gusto’s office space had reached a breaking point in 2017 — our small startup had outgrown its humble home and we were continuing to expand. We secured a new (old) space, a historic ship repair warehouse in San Francisco’s Dogpatch neighborhood, and got working on our new home.
My teammate Jason and I dug deeper into the needs of the employees and explored unique ways to bring the Gusto culture into the new space, while creating a system we could infuse into future offices.
I shared a deep dive into the process in a Medium post.
