A day in the life at PIFF
Our employees work remotely and are expected to be located in the state of Indiana. What does this mean?
90% of our meetings are virtual and held between the hours of 9 am to 5 pm EST. Some meetings and events are held outside of those hours but these are scheduled in advance to ensure full participation. This comes with the expectation which means that we work on a flexible working schedule and we do offer limited comp time.
Travel is expected of all PIFF employees and the amount is dependent on the role. We offer mileage reimbursement but expect employees to use their own vehicles.
