Incredible People and Incredible Impact - Recensione dipendente - Business Development presso Charitybuzz

If you like being treated with borderline-uncomfortable levels of respect, kindness, and trust — this is the place. My commission structure? Generous. My PTO? Unlimited. My workload? Somehow heavy and joyful. They said “sell with heart,” and then actually let me — no micromanaging, just trust and a Slack emoji react. When I hit my first quarterly goal, my manager sent me a bonus and a copy of The Art of the Deal. I cried. Once I casually mentioned my kid was starting preschool and got a Slack DM asking if I had a 529 set up. A week later, $4K showed up “just to get a head start.” The CEO made eye contact with me on Zoom. My soul has not recovered. The vibes? Immaculate. The Slack banter? Elite. The people? Emotionally intelligent overachievers who will make you feel like you’re the main character and the intern.

I now expect all meetings to start with “any personal wins this week?” and for my coworkers to ask how my heart is, not just my pipeline. Leaving was like stepping out of a Nancy Meyers movie and into a fluorescent-lit spreadsheet nightmare.

Social impact. As a senior engineer i’ve passed level-5 engineering tests at Facebook, linkedin and Kayak.com. Each one of those brands offer bigger and fancier resume padding, but none offer the emotion I feel when leaving work for a day. At the end of the day we’re iterating on a product that directly impacts the betterment of the world. I find that aspect means the most to me, and the rest of staff. Small Enough To Impact Change Charitybuzz used to be a family business and has been making huge strides in removing any of those family-like principles, which arguably got in the way of innovation and growth. Today we’re a small enough business to allow anyone on staff to speak up, identify our problems, and offer suggestions on how to improve; and we actively encourage our teaam members to do sos. Culture Culture is a moving target and such we’re constantly iterating on it. We’ve erred on both sides here historically, but today Culture is forefront and serious subject. Senior leadership reviews culture improvements every Friday and we’re constantly listening and iterating from staff feedback; all while having fun raising millions for Charity.

Growth opportunities aren’t as clear and fleshed out as at larger corporations, but the opportunity to grow is there for everyone. 8 years ago I started a mid level engineer here, moved into a senior team lead position quickly, and over the last 6 years I was mentored into senior leadership.
