What do you like best about the leadership team?

Leadership Reviews

Hyper engaged in employee experience

They are empathetic, talented, and listen.

Transparency is unreal. Constantly striving to do more and more better for their people. More attention to prioritization of work as company grows quickly and routine setting of business goals would be helpful.

Inspiring leaders that are kind, transparent and fair.

The best boss yo work for

What does the leadership team need to get better at?

Leadership Reviews

The leadership team is good but could work on leading the company at a more realistic growth rate and not setting up some employees for failure in order to reach unattainable goals.

Review from Customer Support Dept

What is the best part about your compensation package?

Compensation Reviews

The work-life balance granted through flexible work schedules, unlimited PTO, In-the-Wild Time, Bucket List trips and more!

Flexible work life balance and HSAs

Unlimited responsible PTO that is encouraged and celebrated!

It is an excellent package

Unlimited PTO, 10% in the Wild Time, bucket list trips with tenure, and health care. Oh, and deals on gear.

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

Compensation Reviews

Stock options aren't offered to every employee equally, even though Corporate advertises as such. The health insurance is great, however; it feels unfair to exclude certain departments from getting stock options for unknown reasons.

Better pay equals more passion.

Review from Customer Support Dept

What are some of the best things about your team?

Team Reviews

Our team is made up of diverse individuals that all contribute uniquely and positively to our mission. They're also SO FUN.

High energy, passionate people, growth mindset, radical candor, above the line behavior

Very smart and capable people

People are encouraged to show up as they are, which makes the team unique, diverse and always exciting.

They are highly effieceint workers

What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?

Team Reviews

Better communication, updating calendars, follow through on task management/accountability to other team members, remember that in a start up environment a "I will try my best" is always better than a "Can't do, no time" attitude.

Review from Marketing Dept

What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?

Environment Reviews

We are allowed to be human - to show up exactly as we are.

The best company cultuer around

I love that the humanitarian mission is so deeply rooted into our purpose and culture.

What did you like most about the interview process?

Interviews Reviews

Tons of applicants for every role- they hire well for the role and are very focused on diverse teams

The number of people you get to meet! I hear it's highly competitive to get a position

All of the interviewers were well spoken, prepared and kind. They made me excited to have the opportunity to join their team.

I was able to get to know a lot of different people on the team through the multiple stage interview process.

That they tested more for social interaction and communication rather than skills and knowledge. They already knew my skills and knowledge coming into the interview from my resume.
