Quickly find research participants you can trust.
Prolific is changing how research on the internet is done. We started by building a marketplace that connects researchers (from both academia and industry) with instant, high quality, global research participants. Now, as a growing team, the bigger vision is to build the most powerful and trusted platform for behavioural research.
The FlexScore® is the result of a rigorous 2-step verification of a company’s flexibility
First we assess the flexibility options Prolific provides and then we anonymously survey a statistically significant proportion of their employees to make sure Prolific is as flexible as they say they are. Our assessment is based on the six key elements of flexibility: location, hours, autonomy, benefits, role modelling and work-life balance.
We ask the hard questions so you don’t have to.

What employees are saying
"I honestly find it hard to believe I'll ever find another company as flexible and employee-focused as this. They've made it almost impossible for me to ever leave, in a good way! Some other notable things I really appreciate: no meetings allowed on Wednesdays, only deep, focused work. And every other Friday is "Wellness and Creative time," where you can work on your own projects, read a book, go for a hike, clean your house, sleep all day – whatever you need to stay happy and mentally healthy."

Flexible working at Prolific
Prolific has always been passionate about creating and maintaining a flexible workplace. We are a remote-first organisation, meaning you can work from home, from our dog-friendly office hub in Shoreditch, or a local co-working space. We have flexible hours plus shorter hours in the summer and we trust you to give your best to make Prolific succeed. Both contractors and employees are treated with the same internal autonomy. We offer a work from home allowance, and encourage you to make a home office that you love.
And yes, even with all this autonomy, we still love to collaborate with fun quarterly meet-ups and socials virtually and in person. This year our teams have had the opportunity to spend time together in Montenegro, Glasgow, Lisbon, Berlin and more to come!
Approach to diversity & inclusion
Prolific is an equal opportunity employer.
We celebrate differences, it's one of our core Prolific principles. The more diverse and inclusive we become the better for all of us.
Our diversity makes us who we are and drives our success. We want to be a workplace that celebrates differences and where people can bring their full selves to work, free from prejudice.
Our culture reflects this; from our everyday behaviours to the way we remove barriers that prevent people from succeeding in their careers at Prolific.
We are fully committed to ensuring our business is representative of the communities that we serve and are taking actions towards achieving this 💫
What do we think of Prolific?
Prolific started off their accreditation with extremely high expectations due to their brilliant employer benchmark quiz and continued to excel throughout the anonymous employee feedback stage. We had a higher than average participation and the overall feedback was excellent. Candidates should really take note of these combined high scores and the overall flexibility from Prolific, and definitely apply should a relevant role become available.
