Thanks for sharing your perspective. As a fairly young company, we’re constantly growing and evolving. This continuous flux keeps our leaders agile and our culture fresh. It also creates a working environment where employees are motivated to identify gaps and create solutions to improve. This leads to increased professional growth and internal mobility. Our employees also understand that we take our work seriously, but not ourselves. It translates into our ability to have a great time with our colleagues while managing our workload. We’re glad to hear you’re enjoying your time at OwnBackup.

Our CEO prioritizes leading with transparency and does so through his weekly roundup newsletter, open door policy, and Town Halls which always end with a live Q&A session. You’re always welcome to reach out to your HR Business Partner to discuss any concerns you may have. Thank you.

Pros

I've had an amazing experience at OwnBackup! I've been given opportunities to grow my career and really take ownership of my role. My team is awesome and supportive and really helps me grow - and I can feel the impact I have on everyday and long-term initiatives. I feel trusted and appreciated as an employee. The work culture is great and we have flexibility in coming into the office or meeting as a team in person. Overall, love working here and have had a wonderful experience.

Cons

Not much so far. Compared to roles at previous tech companies, any complaint would be minor and not worth noting.
