The company's office Classmates
Classmates - in its walls to create a project the way you see it today.
The company's office is located 8 kilometers from the center of Riga - in the business center PBLC Biznesa Centrs: (more under the cut)

Author: We flew there and back on the plane, which is why the impression that the company is headquartered somewhere in the sub-sub-suburbs. But by and large, the location of the office can be considered a suburb, so the distance from home to no one gets - either by public transportation (including taxi) or in their cars, or if a season, also on bicycles. Around the office quite a large parking lot than often can not boast of many business centers:
On the other side of the building is also available. Trollmode on: from the upper floors are clearly visible tractors who just left Russia:
Classmates occupy this building two floors (4 and 5) of the six - the exact distribution of staff on the floors, I do not remember, but it seems like the bottom staffed tech support, and the top - developers, designers and management.
The first thing that struck us when we entered the "working" space - the number of people working ... almost perfect silence. Usually it happens: in the undivided space employs many people who freely communicate with each other; each plays its own music, someone is talking on the phone - the result is a completely non-operating environment (such as publishing GameLand). Some companies (such as Intel) settle the question of the space division to personal cell - so-called "cubicle", but in the case of "classmates" they did not need to - there was almost perfect silence.
I do not know, maybe it's European tranquility, but whatever it was, we decided not to disturb all the while in a half-voice.
Jobs are fairly common - long tables, separated by small partitions. Every employee - an office chair, and 1 or 2 monitors, depending on the tasks. The number of "poppy" could count on the fingers of one hand - all either "pisyuk" or on laptops.
The working day starts at all different: If you are some kind of collective work (eg, manager, designer and programmer 2 do some service), the group decides how much they should be at work. The rest - you can come and 8 and 10. The dress code is no - someone under the table I saw a homelike sneaker :)
The photograph shows the TV hanging on the wall - it displays real-time statistics of the project.
The office employs about 100 people, 25 of whom are developers, others - designers, testers and others. The youngest just turned 20 years old, the adult - exactly twice. The number of girls were pleasantly surprised - they are about a quarter or even one-third of the total number of employees. That's right - the programmers among them too!
Another 20 percent of technical support - on the ground floor of the office girls live with the "second line" - those that respond to the most complex (unconventional) questions. The first line, which takes the brunt, located in Ivanovo.
All rooms are very light - thanks to natural light and large windows around the perimeter of the building. For example, several meeting rooms:
More recently, a caliper was about 25 thousand calls per day (!), Of which 70-80% were associated with forgetting the password. Refactoring help reduce the number of applications has helped more than 5 times, and the readability of the operational applications of 100%.
More familiar to the girl is a profession designer - have in the company and such. In the picture below, I almost did not disclose any winter project:
On the ground floor there is a separate kind of like a gym, but we did not go there. On the top floor we also are stuck at the table for a game of Novus - Latvian kind of billiards.
No you isksboksov and pleysteshenov - on the need to work to work, and it is right
But the office has a good tradition all together to celebrate any event in the life of the collective. She married or the child was born? I passed on the right or bought a car? Birthday? In any of these cases - cakes and tea drinking, alcohol is not welcome.
Actually, in the photo above, you see those jobs, which forged the project, and in the photo - the people who do it.
