“He saw that he could be the leader without the company being in front of him.”Īlderman said the company wasn’t receiving any incentives to move to the Florida city and that 40% of the company’s 228 employees were still located in the San Francisco Bay Area. “He was alone for the better part of the year,” Alderman said of Holland. That changed after Holland spent much of last year as the only person coming into the company’s 10,000-square-foot office in San Francisco’s SoMa district because of coronavirus prevention closures. Ratings for the Bay Area and California, updated every 10 minutes Holland at the time also spoke of the seismic shift from being a company that required almost every employee to come into the San Francisco office daily to one with employees spread out across the state, country and in Europe and Oceania.īefore the pandemic, “if you didn’t live in the Bay Area and couldn’t come into the office, you weren’t right for us we weren’t right for you,” Alderman said, an approach that also limited whom the company could hire despite the depth of tech talent in Silicon Valley. Last month in an interview Holland spoke about his bullishness when it came to physical office spaces, despite the company’s embrace of “remote first” work that doesn’t require employees to be in a particular physical location. The San Francisco Bay Area “is still a great place to meet potential investors and potential employees when he’s back,” Alderman said. Holland will also move to the Tampa location with his family, but his duties as executive would not change and San Francisco will stay the company’s headquarters, Alderman said, adding that Holland will still spend much of his time in San Francisco. The company also gives employees access to WeWork co-working spaces. “Even in this era of remote work and working from home, we believe there’s a significant portion of top talent who at least want to have the option of an office to go to,” Alderman said.

“I walked out of my first meeting with her realizing Tampa was my choice."ĭespite the company’s remote working model - its office in San Francisco is open to vaccinated employees for now but is nowhere near full - an office has to be an option to create flexibility for employees, of which the company has an increasing number on the East Coast. And again, if you don't like it you can switch back.“I have met many government officials throughout my career, and none understand the needs of the business community and job creators the way Mayor (Jane) Castor does,” Holland said during a news conference announcing the move Tuesday in Tampa.

If you consider getting OpenOffice, my simplest advice would be to just download it, install and try to play around it. It's super easy, cannot be easier than that. I just Googled the name, OpenOffice, download the package and installed it. So this makes OpenOffice a very good product that gives me all the same options is Microsoft Excel, but all for free. Also, I like it because whatever data I create, whatever data tables I have, I can actually export into various formats that I can share with others, with collaborators or with customers. Also, I'm mostly using Linux and Mac and OpenOffice works fine there.

And I switched to it, as I mentioned, to get a free product. I'm using OpenOffice Calc to solve some basic data analysis problems and create some simple math models for my business. And I have no problem also converting all my files and data to Excel if I need to share it with anyone. So I switched to OpenOffice in 2009 and I'm using it since then. To solve my business problems I used to have the Microsoft Excel in the past, and it was pretty convenient but a big issue to me was the price and I knew that OpenOffice provides all the same functionality for free.
