Intensely challenging and satisfying, with awesome people I am proud to call my colleagues.

achievement-driven, transparent, challenging, free of politics, mission-driven

Highly complementary, fast decision making, minimal politics, transparency

I like that there are incentives for over-performance

driven, humble, supportive, no prima donnas, no excuses

frequent and fair re-evaluation and comparison to industry benchmarks

competitive with rewards for over-performance

Transparency, lack of politics or sacred cows, incredible work ethic

smart but humble, willing to help each other and keep each other accountable.

The freedom I have to make decisions and have a very tangible impact on the company's future.

The execs at Branch are a really hard-working team, lead by example, and are not "above" doing any sort of task.

humble but really smart and collaborative people, willing to go above and beyond to help a team member. No prima donnas

feeling like I'm doing my best work and being able to see the direct results of that work in the market

ownership over what I do every day, and seeing the results almost daily. Right now everyone's efforts count and are measurable.

we are evaluated by our work and results, and are motivated by our colleagues. It's intense because people want to do their best work here.

smart but humble - which is something the company screens for and reinforces. Everyone is highly capable and willing to help each other out. No prima donnas.

the variable incentives are based on goals I set with my manager. If they don't make sense or change mid-quarter, we adjust rather than sticking to an outdated plan.

they are doers, not just leaders. they roll up their sleeves and code, write blog posts, sell, whatever it takes, and they are the hardest working people in the company

The company says publicly they want all of us to look back and feel like our best work of our careers was done here. I'd say this feels true for most everyone, and that gives people a really high level of job satisfaction.

It was extremely fast - first interview to offer was around 3 weeks, and the work I put into the interviews and presentation were useful after I was hired. I referred back to my own presentation many times in the first few months.

Ownership and accountability. Things get done, and done well here, which pushes people to bring their A-game every day. People feel accountable to their peers, not just to their managers, and there's a real feeling that people at all levels are doing the best work of their career here.
