Reddit fosters a safe and inclusive workplace culture while offering support, resources, and accommodations for employee needs. We have a flexible work policy that provides support and opportunities for employees to work remotely or in one of our Reddit offices, many of which have spaces designed to minimize sensory distractions for autistic individuals. In addition, we offer elevated employee programming and inclusive training focused on diverse learning and communication styles. Learn more on PowerToFly.
This is incredible, Reddit, Inc. I’d contend that 9 in 10 (or more) autistic people do not work for inclusive employers. Thank you so much for committing to our community.

1wThat's really incredible to hear! I appreciate the specific fact that you mention your offices have spaces designed to minimize sensory distractions. I have always struggled a ton with sensory distractions at work and it truly hinders my productivity. Businesses don't often understand how something as seemingly simple as bright office lights, impromptu meetings in a shared space, uncomfortable furniture, etc. can really make working difficult when you are autistic! I'm working on my degree in computer science, and I've done my best to keep my eye on a few companies to look at working for. Company and work culture are really important, especially when you're autistic! I'll have to keep Reddit in mind for the future! The autistic community appreciates your focus on inclusivity and accessibility!
