MOSTLY AI is proud to offer several benefits in addition to the regular salary.
We are committed to treat all Mostlies equally, but there are legal and market conditions we need to address and comply with. Whenever applicable we are splitting the description of the benefit by your type of employment or location, but you should always check with your direct employer (Employer Of Record or Agency) for further information.
Initial Home Office Stipend - One off
On top of the laptop, MOSTLY AI will provide you with all the equipment you need to perform your job in the most efficient way.
All Mostlies can purchase home office equipment up to 1000 EUR/USD (incl. VAT).
We are a start-up with limited resources. If you don’t need any of these items, please have an environmentally-friendly behaviour and don’t waste resources.
Our recommendation is that, on top of the laptop, you have the following setup:
- Screen
- Mouse
- Keyboard
- Webcam
- Headset
- Ergonomic office desk
- Ergonomic office chair
- Cables and adaptors as needed
This benefit doesn´t cover items that are not used in your home-office environment, such as TV, gaming consoles, phones, non-office furniture, streaming services, e-readers, etc.
This benefit can be used after a successful probation period and no later than 6 months after your start date. If not used within this period, the benefit expires.
This benefit can’t be used by employees under termination processes.

Please send a message to Tobias Hann with some bullet points to describe the actions and the impacts of the nominee and Tobi will make a fair assessment.
The submission should be done at least 1 working day before the STATUS meeting.
A 100€ amazon gift card (or equivalent) will be awarded.
Peer 2 Peer recognition
Remember that time a peer complimented your hard work on that project? (btw, congrats!)
How did it make you feel? If you’re like most people, then it probably made you feel awesome (but only after you checked that it wasn’t your mom hijacking your mate’s laptop 😅).
We would love to see that more often and also… actually visualise it! 👀 So on top of a private comment, we invite you to join #mostly-kudos-and-tacos on Slack and praise your colleague by sharing when and why that peer deserved your appreciation. Add the app HeyTaco and finish your message with a 🌮 .
One 50 EUR/USD Amazon gift card (or equivalent) will be awarded to a person that collects 10 tacos.

@username, you have been a great addition to the ABC team. Your energy and commitment to solve the compliance issue with the provider Y this week was so impressive. Keep up the good work! Enjoy your 🌮
