Here are some of the reasons why Tucows.com Co. was selected as one of Greater Toronto's Top Employers (2025):
- Tucows.com adopted a remote-first work model, allowing teams to work however and wherever works best for them and offers employees a one-time stipend to purchase home office equipment (from ergonomic chairs to noise cancelling headphones) -- and when working on-site, employees can take advantage of multiple lounge areas with comfortable couches and chairs and a spacious, fully-equipped kitchen area complete with foosball table
- Tucows.com starts new employees with three weeks of paid vacation (moving to four weeks after four years on the job) and helps employees balance their day-to-day lives with 10 paid personal days that can be used throughout the year as needed
- Tucows.com maintains generous maternity and parental leave top-up policies, offering 100 per cent of salary for up to 36 weeks for new mothers and up to 26 weeks for fathers and adoptive parents -- and all new parents may apply to extend their leave into an unpaid leave of absence before returning to work
