We are also redesigning right now and I found the most useful info came from people who had just joined Cohere. I asked them what was most important to them when they were clicking around and it was pictures of the space/people and cost. So, we're making those super easy to find on the new site

Office Nomads is also in the process of a website redesign (wowsa - so exciting!), and have been thinking about the same aspects that y'all are focusing on. For what it's worth, I'll add in my list: 1. Show what your space looks like (and I'll echo Alex's recommendations highly - photos without pe
