ClearlyRated Culture
We're scrappy, we laugh a lot, and we give a crap about more than just work. Our culture borrows from the energy of a startup, with the work-life balance and flexibility of a company that understands there is more to life than just work. You'll work your ass off here, but you'll also be treated like an adult. One who can make their own schedule work and be productive.
We care about the way people feel. Our passion is in creating a world-class, consistently remarkable experience for our clients and so far, it's working. With more than 2,000 survey responses since 2010, our average score is 9.3 out of 10, a Net Promoter Score of 84.
We believe in providing our clients fanatical service and expect you to provide that same level of service to internal and external customers. We view client service as paramount to our success and the following are just a couple examples of how we approach it day-to-day.
- Any employee can spend up to $100 without management approval to “make a client’s day”.
- We drove to a client’s office in Seattle with a basket of gifts for their entire office to personally apologize for a mistake we made with one of their surveys.
- We have been known to send bottles of Oregon Pinot Noir to east coast clients to “virtually” toast the completion of a successful project.
We have weekly All Hands meetings where the entire company comes together and the management transparently shares how the company is doing financially, tracks our progress on the company’s goals, and updates the team on strategy for the direction of the company.
