Parabol

Remote retrospective and meeting app.

Who We Are

Parabol exists to enable meaningful interactions at work. We are creating software that makes every meeting worth the time invested.

Since 2015, our global team has worked to build lovingly crafted, open-source software that helps teams do their best work. We work just as hard on delivering an employee-centric people-first company culture.

Company Values

  • Open-source code: See our code and how we work together before you apply.
  • Friday Ship: We’ve been building in public since 2015 and publish a weekly blog with our metrics and updates of what we’re working on.
  • Default to transparency: We default to working in public Slack channels and minimize 1:1 direct messages, so everyone can see what others are working on and lend a hand if they’d like.
  • Share beyond our team: When some things work particularly well, we share our process for others to learn from, including how we hire.
  • Open governance: Everyone at Parabol is responsible for shaping how we run the company.
  • Trust: We trust each other to make changes, lead projects and take initiative.
  • Growing faster through experimentation and autonomy: From peer code reviews to monthly sales experiments, we structure our work to maximize learning.
  • No big reveals: We work in short iterative cycles and avoid long project timelines and ‘big launch energy.

Company Perks

  • Work from anywhere with people around the globe: Our current team stretches from Los Angeles, California to Warsaw, Poland.
  • Fair & location-agnostic pay: US-based salaries, no matter where you’re based. We also provide industry-leading healthcare for US employees.
  • People-first working hours: We limit recurring meetings to 1-2 hours per week per team, with no synchronous daily standups, so you have time for deep work.
  • Building trust through fun: We hold quarterly in-person or virtual retreats and optional weekly social #fika calls to get to know each other. We also start every meeting with an icebreaker.
  • No hustle: We offer unlimited PTO for everyone and company-wide and country-specific holidays. We also don’t treat anything as an emergency, because it rarely is.
  • Kind and direct feedback: We lend each other a hand and provide honest feedback on each others’ work, always in the interest of making it better.
