Pretty sure <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;rogueamoeba.com" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;rogueamoeba.com</a> fits the bill. I enjoyed an interesting interview with the founder Paul Kafasis on Debug. I had a good laugh at the discussions about having employees for years and never meeting them. <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;m.imore.com&#x2F;debug-66-paul-kafasis-rogue-amoeba" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;m.imore.com&#x2F;debug-66-paul-kafasis-rogue-amoeba</a>

Articulate is at 150+ employees, about 100 of which are developers. And they&#x27;re always hiring. And they have no office anywhere.<p>It&#x27;s surprising they don&#x27;t come up in these discussions more often.

We&#x27;re small, bigger than 5 of course, but small. Been distributed for 18 years, we tried office space for the bay area people and eventually went 100% distributed. We&#x27;ve got people on both coasts of the US as well as the middle (not sure if we have anyone in MST but we have all the other time zones covered). And people in Canada, eh?<p>www.bitkeeper.com
