Our Company
BetterWorks vision is to "Make Work Rewarding!" Technically speaking we're a business platform where businesses can quickly create better, more rewarding work environments for their employees while saving a ton of time and money. Think of it as "Happiness in the Cloud." Socially speaking, we're a group of fun, innovative founders who love entrepreneurship. The founders are Paige Craig (Marine, CEO and Angel Investor), George Ishii (early Paypal, Yammer & Geni.com, Kiva fellow), and Sizhao "Zao" Yang (MyMiniLife, Farmville, Zynga and angel investor). We're all innovators in our own right and we're looking for sharp, ambitious folks who care more about opportunity than titles. If you want the opportunity to grow personally and professionally, to work with proven entrepreneurs, and to help business owners and employees please
hit us up.
We started BetterWorks to help the country's six million small & medium businesses create better work environments, happier and more productive employees and ultimately foster better business across the US. If you share this passion come join us on this adventure. We're located in the heart of Santa Monica, a few blocks away from the beach, and smack dab in the middle of LA's growing Silicon Beach.
Our Values
Ownership:
Founding and early employees receive options (i.e. ownership) because we're all going to be working hard to build an amazing company together.
Vision, Commitment, Passion:
We want everyone to understand, believe and be wildly committed to the mission of this company. Beyond building a financially successful company, we are committed to building a company that will make the workforce better.
Speed:
This comes down to execution, taking a risk, making a decision and getting things done on an hourly, daily, weekly basis. We value thought & analysis in this company but we don't want to be paralyzed by meetings, inaction and a lack of decisiveness.
Caring for Employees:
We will reward you for your commitment, success and sacrifice and we actually give a damn. Life is much more than building a company- in return for your dedication and effort we want to make sure this is an incredible place to work.
Talent Density:
We want to work with A+ people; you do as well. We're going to hold ourselves and everyone we hire to high standards.
Intellectual Honesty:
We respect intelligent discussion & passionate debate. If you hear ideas, assumptions, theory, strategy or processes that just don't make sense, please speak up. Criticism is welcome at all levels provided it comes with a solution or recommendation.
Merit:
Rewards, promotions, and achievement in the company will be based on your ability to execute and achieve goals. We have no room for politics, infighting, rumor mills or cliques in this company. We're all on the same team, the BetterWorks Team.
