Zenefits Information
Zenefits was founded with a belief that work is worth celebrating. It’s a new world of work, and we take great pride in creating a modern People Platform that empowers employees. Moving away from command and control to power to the people, we’re driven by a challenger mindset and a passion to make the employee experience as dynamic and information rich as possible. At Zenefits, we understand that our past does not dictate our future, but it steers us towards the company we are becoming - together.
What if you went to work each day knowing your efforts are making life better for employees?
This is ZenNation. Where we celebrate the world of work, and each other. Building a platform that’s fit for everyone means building a company that mirrors that approach. We’re building a culture that fosters a collaborative environment, supports our differences, quirks, individuality, and celebrates all the things that align us.
At ZenNation we’re drawn to colleagues with a deep sense of curiosity, empathy, and adventure. We admire risk takers willing to stand up for what they believe in and challenge the status quo for the greater good. Where some see challenges, we see opportunities - because we’re in it together.
Passionate, tenacious, team-oriented and committed - that’s how we describe the Sales and Marketing team here at Zenefits. With eyes on the prize, these groups collaborate daily to bring their A-game to the field to bring our product to people everywhere.
Community
Sales and Marketing work hard to collaborate. With regular team building events, volunteering excursions, and routine trainings, we’re a group that leans on each other with a strong foundation of trust. We collaborate, we hustle, and we celebrate our wins - together. Our open floor plan promotes cross-organization connectivity, and we regularly collaborate with different teams on new initiatives.
The Challenger Mindset
We’re powered by learning, and we love learning from others and sharing inspiration to drive our best work. With routine guest speakers and industry experts visiting our teams, we’re constantly motivated by new techniques to drive our business forward. Sales Kickoff, President’s Club and Core Value Awards name a few of the events we use to celebrate our hard work. We ensure our Sales & Marketing team has the tools and resources they need to excel.
Selling a Platform That Impacts Lives
We know the field of SaaS is saturated with Sales and Marketing opportunities. Our talent bar is high, so we know you have many options. What makes Sales and Marketing at Zenefits unique is that you’re selling a platform that makes employee’s lives easier, and helps entrepreneurs grow their business. Knowing you’re making the world of work better, while you’re surpassing your goals, is an added bonus that drives us.
ENGINEERING & PRODUCT
Engineers at Zenefits are constantly shipping creative solutions to some of the most challenging problems in the tech industry. We have deeply ingrained cultural values that make this possible:
Autonomy. Our engineers enjoy an unprecedented amount of ownership of the products they work on -- making decisions about when and where to optimize, collaborating closely with product managers to spec out features, and working at the boundaries of products to ensure they work well together. The hardest problem of a startup is deciding what to work on, and in what order, and we trust our engineers to do the right thing for our customers when we’re making these decisions.
Continuous improvement. We work constantly to improve the product for our customers, and the codebase for our fellow engineers. We believe in shipping features quickly and iteratively, but HR systems require integrity, and we expect engineers at Zenefits to build that into every feature, and every line of code they ship. "Leave things better than you found them" is one of our foundational principles.
Collaboration. Humans are complicated, and so is HR software. Complicated software problems are solved by working together, not by an individual hero coder. Engineers at Zenefits work in small, cross-functional teams who collaborate across disciplines and organizational boundaries using tools like Slack, e-mail, GitHub, Confluence, and Jira. We keep communication flowing constantly, so we can craft unified, intuitive solutions to the complex interlocking problems of HR.
