About Yoko Co
What is Yoko Co?
Yoko Co is a web agency that only works with mission-driven organizations — healthcare nonprofits, associations, purpose-led companies — building websites that move their causes forward. Founded in 2009 and based out of McLean, Virginia with a fully remote team of around 37, it has spent fifteen years proving that a small agency can do meaningful work without grinding its people down, and offsets its carbon footprint while it's at it.
Where will I work?
From home — the team is remote across the United States, hiring in "full-time, part-time, or contract varieties" depending on what works for the candidate. Roles are posted on Yoko Co's own careers site.
What is the Yoko Co team like?
Thirty-something designers, developers, strategists and project leads who chose client work with a conscience. The careers page is refreshingly plain-spoken about what working there is actually like — including who shouldn't apply.
Work-Life Balance
The time-off policy is stated in the company's own voice, verbatim: "Unlimited vacation. Unlimited sick leave. As long as your work isn't negatively impacted, you're free to take that week-long trip to the World Bagpipe Championships." And the floor is real, not theoretical: "We take off all federal holidays, most of the week of Thanksgiving and TWO WEEKS(!!!) at the end of the year." — a genuine year-end shutdown on top of the unlimited policy.

- Full-time salary, health benefits, bonuses and 401(k) with company match

How we verified this listing
Yoko Co's policy is stated in its own voice on its own careers page, and we quote it because no summary improves it: unlimited vacation and unlimited sick leave, conditioned only on your work not suffering. The floor makes it real — a company that closes for two weeks at year-end plus most of Thanksgiving week can't quietly discourage time off, because the whole firm is out together. We corroborated the claim against its live We Work Remotely posting (two independent placements of the same policy). Yoko hires through its own site with a simple application form rather than an ATS, so openings are few and personal — this is a profile worth following rather than a firehose of jobs.
