We were founded on the principle work where you want, live where you want. During the pandemic, we adopted a work-from-anywhere approach, with no expectation of returning to the office in the future. Our leadership sets an example of transparency and accountability, while encouraging creativity and fast learning. Our CEO emphasizes that all employees are owners in the company, and should be treated as such. We embrace tech tools and opportunities for team growth and fun. Cultural initiatives include a weekly trivia game, Meditation Mondays, and virtual events.

At OwnBackup, our culture is as important as any financial performance metric. We build this culture every day through relentless communication and relationships cultivated through town halls, impromptu conversations, and ask-me-anything sessions with top management. We encourage employees to take part in self-actualization and coaching programs offered by our award-winning learning and development team. Our goal is to inspire our team members and provide them with the tools to achieve great things as employees and people.

The founders of our company have always focused on four key visions when it comes to employee career development: Learn as much as possible, grow personally, build a career, and make a positive impact on the people we come in contact with. We believe in bringing empathy into how we work with others and having fun while we’re doing it. To ensure we're always working toward these pillars in our company culture, the executive team is consistently gathering feedback from employees in ways that are both quantitative and qualitative.

Our culture is built on continual improvement through better relationships. We obsess about building great relationships, starting with our employees. We are a living, breathing entity because of our people. Without them, we’re just legal documents. We know that being a catalyst in employee growth helps us grow. We contribute to the long-term sustainability and profitability of our workforce, and that commitment translates to the clients we serve.

We take pride in our culture and dedication to our employees. While remote, our morning video calls give everyone a chance to speak up and keep our U.S. and U.K. staffs well connected. We encourage employees to partake in conferences, certification courses, lunch-and-learns, and more. We organize regular team bonding activities such as trivia, paint-n-sip, escape rooms, and happy hours. The team is welcome to bring their kids (human or furry) to the office, and employees can relieve stress and improve their well-being with monthly massages and unlimited PTO.
