About The Company:
At Scribd (pronounced “scribbed”), our mission is to spark human curiosity. Join our team as we create a world of stories and knowledge, democratize the exchange of ideas and information, and empower collective expertise through our three products: Everand, Scribd, and Slideshare.
We support a culture where our employees can be real and be bold; where we debate and commit as we embrace plot twists; and where every employee is empowered to take action as we prioritize the customer.
When it comes to workplace structure, we believe in balancing individual flexibility and community connections. It’s through our flexible work benefit, Scribd Flex, that employees – in partnership with their manager – can choose the daily work-style that best suits their individual needs. A key tenet of Scribd Flex is our prioritization of intentional in-person moments to build collaboration, culture, and connection. For this reason, occasional in-person attendance is required for all Scribd employees, regardless of their location.
So what are we looking for in new team members? Well, we hire for “GRIT”. The textbook definition of GRIT is demonstrating the intersection of passion and perseverance towards long term goals. At Scribd, we are inspired by the potential that this can unlock, and ask each of our employees to pursue a GRIT-ty approach to their work. In a tactical sense, GRIT is also a handy acronym that outlines the standards we hold ourselves and each other to. Here’s what that means for you: we’re looking for someone who showcases the ability to set and achieve Goals, achieve Results within their job responsibilities, contribute Innovative ideas and solutions, and positively influence the broader Team through collaboration and attitude.
About the Team:
We’re a small but mighty team, passionate about cultivating a culture of belonging by fostering community and investing in human connection. We obsess over the details that make people feel welcome, engaged, and celebrated.
Our work shows up in real, everyday ways: we design thoughtful onboarding and unforgettable offsites, plan events that connect people across teams and time zones, and manage the details that make our office a place worth the occasional commute. We write internal comms that resonate and run wellbeing programs that support balance across body, mind, and soul. All of it is grounded in our values — and built to last.
If you’re someone who can dream big, sweat the details, and build with both empathy and edge — you’ll thrive here. The work is meaningful. The heart is real. Let’s make magic.
