It’s not just about perks. It’s about solving tough problems and constantly learning, collaborating, and improving.
Commit to Excellence
Excellence in the little things always adds up to excellence in the big things. That's why we're committed to making the right choices over and over again — especially when no one is looking.
Be Radically Transparent
We practice transparency, providing insight into all levels of the company, from financial performance to individual compensation.
Focus on the Customer
At Very, we know that our success goes hand-in-hand with the success of our customers. This keeps a spirit of partnership alive and drives us to act with integrity and achieve the highest professional standards.
Continuously Improve
No matter how good you are, everyone makes mistakes. At Very, we challenge each other to learn from them and strive to be better tomorrow than we were yesterday.
Care Personally, Challenge Directly
When our career coaches deliver feedback about performance, we make sure that it's kind and clear, specific and sincere.
Build Sustainably
We're not interested in building sandcastles. Instead, we focus on sustainability in everything we build — from the software we develop to the internal processes we put in place.
What About the Perks?
Remote Work
Very is a fully remote company, and we've invested in the processes and tools necessary to become the best practitioners of remote work. At Very, you'll work from your home, and we'll pay to help you outfit your office space.
Healthcare Coverage
We're invested in making our contribution to employee healthcare coverage in the 99th percentile in the United States. Most employees at Very spend $0/year for their families to get high-quality health, dental, vision, and life insurance.
401k Match
We want our employees to be financially secure, both today and in the future. So we match 33% of every employee's 401k contributions (compared to the national average of 6%).
Fitness
We believe in and strongly support our employees' health and fitness goals. Every employee has access to a stipend to cover their gym membership fees, plus an internal network of like-minded employees pursuing all kinds of fitness and wellness goals. See a few of those teammates here.
Continuing Education
We're big believers in the value of achieving mastery through teaching and leveling up your skills with continuous learning. We cover $2,000/year for you to attend conferences, take courses, or learn new things. We'll also pay 100% of the costs if you're chosen to speak at a conference (and we'll help you land that speaking role).
Paid Parental Leave
When you welcome a new baby, we encourage you to take time off to bond with your child. Our maternity and paternity leave for new parents is in the 95th percentile in the U.S. Ask to see our parental leave policy!
Home Office Stipend
All employees have access to a monthly stipend so that things like your mobile phone bill and the WiFi you use for work come at no cost to you. Over and above that, every new employee receives $1,000 to set up their home "battle stations" exactly the way they want. You'll also get an additional $200/year every year to make improvements.
Open Salary
With our transparent salary model, you can easily see how much everyone in the company makes, from the CEO to our most junior employee. You'll never have to wonder if you're being paid fairly.
Team Building
Just because we're remote doesn't mean we don't have casual times to bond and let loose. Our Remote Commission is always thinking of new creative ways to help our team bond. We also have an annual company retreat where we spend time learning from each other and growing closer as a team (not to mention skiing or relaxing on a beach).
We're Hiring!
Exciting challenges lie ahead. We’ll meet these challenges creatively and with the support of our talented team. Join us!
