WHY WE'RE A BEST PLACE TO WORK

GoSite began as a bootstrapped startup with limited resources and limitless dreams. The culture, employee experience, and dedication to best practices was kept top of mind from the very beginning, and has led to a people-first organization. Early company practices, such as team-building events, celebrating key achievements, and birthday recognition have stayed true. We offer paid gym memberships; unlimited PTO; 100 percent company-paid medical, dental, and vision insurance; parental leave; 401(k) with 4 percent matching; and more.

At Grafana Labs, our people and culture have always been the core of our operations. Since the onset of the pandemic, this focus has only intensified. We have placed even greater emphasis on employees' mental and physical care. We have invested heavily in tools to bring team members together across dozens of countries. This geographic distribution necessitates that we constantly follow a culture-first approach. Without such a fabric to hold us together, our company would fail to deliver the service that our clients deserve.

As a hiring software company, we're committed to creating a world that is more diverse and inclusive, and we do that by enabling companies to create better workplace cultures by being great at hiring. Our culture committee and DEI council spearhead initiatives that improve our overall culture, while ensuring that all teams and underrepresented groups have a seat at the table. We also have a variety of employee resource groups (LGBTQ, women, people of color, et al.) that help foster a culture of belonging, while promoting upward mobility for those underrepresented groups.

We developed seven guiding values, assigning "values-infused behaviors" to each one to describe the specific attributes, traits, and behaviors that our people practice to live each value. Every decision we make is centered on inclusion. We provide responsible time off, and employees must take a minimum of four weeks off per year. We pay 100 percent of the health, dental, and vision insurance for employees and their families. We also offer annual profit sharing.

Groove was built on three core values: care more, team over self, and enjoy the journey. Our employees must demonstrate kindness, empathy, and an eagerness to help others. We foster a culture of empathy and transparency to ensure we’re always adding value and putting the needs of our customers first. We get to know employees’ strengths, motivations, and career goals so we can align their growth paths with their career goals. Groove also hosts companywide offsite trips twice a year.
