FAQs

What is Bridgewater's policy on work flexibility and on-site work requirements?
We learned during the pandemic that increased flexibility doesn’t mean decreased productivity. We also learned that while we can be productive remotely, some work is best done in person. To capitalize on the learnings, Bridgewater currently has a suite of flexible offerings such as hybrid work, work away, and a subset of roles approved to work from anywhere. Our HR team continually reviews and updates these offerings to help ensure they capitalize on the benefits of remote work without compromising the strategic priority of coming together as a community.

Regarding on-site work specifically, Bridgewater requires most employees to be onsite a minimum of two days per week and may work offsite on other days. During on-site days, we focus on activities that take advantage of our shared location. Department Heads and managers can require additional onsite days depending on your role and business needs.
