Swellie - Anonymous employee Swell Investing Employee Review

The best culture and people I have ever worked with. If there were more companies that adopted Swells culture this world would be a better place. Each employee at the company has a voice to be heard with complete autonomy from top to bottom Strong communication and the collaborative environment that touches each and every team. The top-level management including the CEO has done a phenomenal job at making sure each employee has a voice. The workflow is a truly agile process with great discussions, dialogues, and communication amongst employees. The culture is so potent and influential that it subjectively changed my personal life as well.

A corporate venture by Pac Life. A real complex industry with many obstacles including a strong barrier to entry.

I have been working at Swell Investing full-time for more than a year Pros I’ve been with Swell since launch. I originally started as a contractor but went full-time soon after. I love the company’s mission, and I feel like they are making a difference in an industry that needs it the most. It’s a great place to work, but like any early stage startup it has its pros and cons. • team- a great group of people to work with, everyone is super smart and brings a diverse set of skills to the table • a good place to learn new skills • a good place to learn more about the financial world and making good decisions for your own future • methodology for building product - pair programming, user testing and an agile approach to building product • Location, location, location - the office is a few blocks from the beach and has an amazing outdoor patio • HR actually cares - in-house HR takes time to truly listen to employees and make changes • transparency with employees around business decisions • flexible work hours • good benefits

• priorities sometimes shift quickly • parent company slows down progress
