Fivetran · Oakland, California
Fivetran designed its Oakland headquarters as an “on-site off-site” — a place to gather teams the way a company retreat does.

An on-site off-site
Fivetran has a long habit of company off-sites, so Gensler built them into the office: flexible conference spaces, team collaboration areas, social spaces and kitchens sit together so teams can convene, build and celebrate on site. The same rooms host the community, from coding classes for high-school students to local art exhibitions. The open-office neighbourhoods were planned from surveys and focus groups, with Fivetran-specific ratios of dedicated desks, alternate seating and short-term workpoints, and finishes chosen from a “finish matrix” by location and activity level.
