More and more companies are finding that allowing employees to work flexible hours and removing the dependency on real-time conversation doesn’t necessarily result in a loss in productivity. Asynchronous work has always been the norm at Expensify, and we’d love to share some of the top benefits we’ve discovered over the years by maintaining a workplace where employees can work when they want, where they want.
We made this design system with the goal of creating a cohesive way to express the Expensify personality across the board, no matter the use-case or medium. From a luxurious ExpensiCon in Italy, to accounting conferences in Las Vegas, to billboards around the country, to daily social media posts, and above all else, the Expensify app – anything Expensify says or does visually should look and feel like the Expensify we know and love: bold, courageous, innovative, and easy to understand.
This month we had the incredible experience of being the Unicorn sponsor at the SaaStr Annual conference. At Expensify, we believe in going big, and our presence at this conference was no exception.

Back in 2008, Expensify emerged as trailblazers in changing the boring task of expenses, enabling employees to get their time back and do more interesting things, exactly as our motto suggests; “you weren’t born to do expenses”. But as we march through 2023 and towards 2024, (eek) we have come to realize the critical importance of harmonizing efficiency with accuracy and how the mix of both is the actual recipe for success.
While Expensify is known for its spend management superapp, some may be surprised to learn that the people behind Expensify operate with a relatively modest team of around ~135 individuals hailing from all corners of the globe. Even more surprising is that over 66% of staff have been with the company over 4 years, while 50% have worked at Expensify for over 6 years!
Since 2011, Expensify’s unique and autonomous work culture has made our company a model for remote work. Our commitment to providing employees with the freedom to manage their own schedules and workloads has resulted in a reputation for innovation, creativity, and collaboration.
