Overseas Exepectations:

1. Work Hours Must Align with U.S. Eastern Time (EST)

-

Core working hours are 9:00 AM – 5:00 PM EST, Monday through Friday.

-

Overseas workers must adjust their schedule to be fully available and online during these hours.

-

Occasional flexibility may be allowed, but EST coverage is non-negotiable.

1. Responsiveness and Communication

-

Must be responsive to both internal team as well as clients via email, Teams, or other tools within a reasonable time frame (e.g., within 15–30 minutes during work hours).

-

Acknowledge requests and provide an expectation for a response if the timeframe to provide an answer is not possible within 30 minutes.

-

Attend daily stand-ups, scheduled meetings, and impromptu calls as needed.

-

Camera should be on and workspace properly lit.

-

Proactive communication is expected—provide updates without being asked.

1. Accountability and Ownership

-

Overseas workers are equal team members and are expected to own their tasks with the same level of responsibility as U.S.-based colleagues.

-

If a task cannot be completed or the next step is unclear, it is essential to raise it to the team immediately so that someone can take ownership and ensure continuity.

-

Leaving tasks unresolved without follow-up is unacceptable. For example, if you create an invoice but are unsure who is responsible for sending it, you must flag it clearly—do not leave it unfinished or unassigned.

-

Every team member should think through the entire workflow (e.g., end-to-end accounting processes) and ensure that all steps are completed or clearly transitioned.

1. Professionalism and Reliability

-

Show up on time to meetings, deliver consistent work, and maintain a professional attitude.

-

A stable internet connection and a quiet working environment are essential.

1. Time Zone Awareness and Coordination

-

Understand that the team operates on EST, and plan ahead for things like time changes (Daylight Saving Time, for example).

-

Avoid frequent unavailability during EST hours due to personal or local matters.

1. Collaboration and Visibility

-

Engage in team discussions, contribute ideas, and stay visible even while remote.

-

Use shared tools (e.g., project trackers, time logs, status updates) to show progress.

-

If applicable, send daily status updates as we continue to work on backlog.
