Our Hub+Home Hybrid Workplace
Hub+Home is our hybrid model that gives employees flexibility between gathering in a common office space (work from hub) and remote work (work from home). Some teams will work mostly at hub, some mostly at home and others hybrid.
The goal is to support our diverse work needs while keeping all of us connected to each other, our customers, and our communities.
Work from Hub is for cases where collaborating in person is preferred or certain workflows would be more efficient. It's also best for experiencing our culture in action.
Work from Home may offer more privacy and focus, as well as a more flexible working style or use of time that helps with work-life balance.

Work from Hub
These are times we need to connect with others in the same environment—to more quickly solve problems, benefit from a collective energy, fortify and feel our culture, or engage directly with the communities in which we operate through our impact work.
SEE OUR IMPACT WORKWork From Hub might include:
- New Hire Orientation
- Training Sessions
- Mentorship
- Team and Cross Functional Collaboration
- Team Projects
- Community Engagement Opportunities
- Cultural Celebration
- Impact Group events
Work from Home
We may be more focused or creative in our own environments, or we may need to tend to someone throughout the day. We could be heads-down on a project that's easier to accomplish alone or without commuting.
See Our Hubs
Audible is a mission-driven company devoted to each other's well-being and to the cities we call home. As we build and improve Hub+Home, that care for our community is behind everything we do. There's no one-size-fits-all structure, though. We all work in different locations across the world, serve different functions, and have different team dynamics. Our hubs give us the flexibility to support that.

The What Are You Listening To? Wall
This interactive experience lets us share our recommendations from wherever we are. And if we're looking for something to listen to, we can filter our searches by genre, mood, locations, and more.
The What Are You Listening To? Wall
One of the main things that connects Audible employees is our love of listening to audio storytelling and then talking to each other about it. We shared those listens on a wall in our Newark lobby – and now it's gone virtual, and global, to keep the conversation going!
Frequently Asked Questions
-
When will the new Hub+Home workplace launch? -
Hub+Home – our new way of working – will launch in January/February 2022. At that time, employees will return to their hubs at a frequency determined by their team’s approach, the needs of the business, and any other local requirements. Employees will be expected to live close enough to their assigned hub that they can easily travel to the office for a meeting within a day’s notice without need for a flight or hotels.
