We are all working remotely at the moment, but have a great office in central Gothenburg with good coffee and a modest selection of tea (we can order something else if you are not a tea/coffee drinker). Every Friday afternoon we have company wide workshops, release parties and discussions that we call fantastic fridays (https://www.instagram.com/metry.io/).
