Culture
Our culture
Our aim is to create a culture where our employees can both feel good about their work and thrive outside of it. That’s why we strive to cultivate a diverse community of growth, balance, and joy.
DIVERSITY, INCLUSION, AND BELONGING
We believe strong companies are built from a diversity of backgrounds, perspectives, and experiences. That’s why our culture centers around a commitment to fostering a positive and inclusive environment where everyone feels supported, comfortable, and completely part of the team. We also know this is work that's never done, so we view this as dedication to an ongoing, iterative process. You can learn more about our approach here.
LEARNING & DEVELOPMENT
We hire people who are lifelong learners, so we love fueling that intellectual curiosity and professional development throughout the employee experience. We view our employees with a growth mindset and cultivate development both through challenging, engaging work and external learning opportunities. This includes ongoing conversations with managers, PeopleOps, and team members about new opportunities, lunch ’n’ learns, and room to collaborate across disciplines.
SOCIAL CONNECTEDNESS
We love doing work together — and also just having fun together! We spend time laughing and learning as a team through tons of creative social events like monthly birthday celebrations, all-company scavenger hunts, team sushi-making classes, game nights, and, of course, a book club!

Our approach to work
We believe that when we design a work environment that’s highly transparent, thoughtfully paced, and collaborative, we can do great things together.
TRANSPARENCY & COMMUNICATION
When our employees and teams are well-informed, we’re equipped to make our best decisions. That’s why we bring the entire team together for weekly all-hands meetings and quarterly kick-offs to share all of our key metrics and milestones; candid feedback from readers, publishers, and authors; and product plans and strategy.
LONG-TERM FOCUS
We’re driven — but we believe that achieving our vision is a marathon, not a sprint! That’s why we focus on long-term impact when designing goals, plans, and projects, and tie all our work back to our overarching vision. We’re also intentional about pacing ourselves so that our work doesn’t need to come at the expense of our well-being.
