We empower all team members to become co-owners of the company through our cooperative ownership structure.- We’re highly intentional about building a diverse hiring pipeline and ensuring that job applications from a wide range of backgrounds are brought into the fold.
- Team member salaries are shared with all co-owners, and they are adjusted each year through a rigorous market-matching process.
- We welcome job applicants without college degrees (our President doesn’t have one!) or applicants who have had contact with the criminal justice system.
- We check in with all team members during weekly 1-1s, quarterly conversations, and annual journeys of transformation to ensure they feel included and heard.
- We eliminated performance-based pay raises, recognizing that performance metrics are commonly impacted by implicit bias and internal politics.
