What to Expect
Meaningful
Compensation
All employees receive competitive salaries and significant stock options. Money isn’t everything, but we believe organizations do best when the entire team is well compensated and shares in success.
Comprehensive
Benefits
We offer a variety of health, dental, and vision insurance plans across several carriers so employees can customize to their needs. Other perks include commuter discounts, top-notch office space, and a kitchen stocked with free drinks and snacks.
Flexible
Schedules
We don’t obsess over when people are in the office and have a “take-what-you-need” vacation policy. We work hard, but understand that people are most productive when they can manage their own schedules.
Inclusive Environment
We believe strong companies are built from a diversity of backgrounds, perspectives, and experiences. We strive to foster a positive and inclusive environment, where everyone feels supported, comfortable, and completely part of the team.
Personalized
Equipment
Each person we hire chooses their own computing equipment. We never want our team to be held up by slow technology, so we believe in buying the systems that help each individual work best.
Transparent
Communication
We share all of our key metrics and milestones — whether good or bad — in a weekly company-wide meeting. Transparency keeps everyone informed, builds trust, and helps us all make smart, data-driven decisions.
Long-Term
Focus
We steer clear of short-sighted initiatives, especially when they’re at the expense of our team’s work-life balance. As such, we avoid burnout traps like all nighters and unrealistic deadlines. We’re driven, but it’s a marathon, not a sprint.
Social Events
We work together as a team, learn from each other, and have fun. And that camaraderie also extends beyond work projects into regular company outings, game nights, happy hours, sports clubs, and of course, a book club.
Learning
and Growth
Intellectual curiosity and continuous learning are highly valued at BookBub. We have opportunities for mentoring, lunch-and-learns, outside classes, conferences, and ample chances to collaborate across disciplines.
Entrepreneurial
Location
We’re headquartered in Kendall Square in Cambridge, MA, right next to the MIT campus, perhaps the most concentrated square mile of startups, technological innovation, and entrepreneurial people in the world.
