    🀩 Flat hierarchy
    Each team member is an expert, so often and through numerous channels are, individuals' expertise invited into the room and conversation. There is open dialogue, strong feedback loops, and collaborative problem-solving and opportunity-taking across and within teams and between individual contributors, managers, and leadership.

    πŸ‘©β€πŸ‘§β€πŸ‘§ Team members
    Hands down, the best. We're a global team that often gets together in digital spaces and during the year at an all-team offsite. The room speaks to the group, which is safe, inclusive, open, empathetic, collaborative, trustworthy, purpose-driven... the list can go on and on.

    πŸ“£ Mission & Purpose
    So rarely does personal and professional purpose align as it does for me at FP. There is no better place for those who want to solve some of the world's most challenging problems, help others do the same, and have an outsized impact at scale

    πŸ‘©β€πŸ‘§β€πŸ‘§ Team members
    One of the most insightful and talented groups of people I've ever worked with. Everyone is here for the right reasons and attitudes are great!

    πŸ“£ Mission & Purpose
    If you want to have impact, this is a great place to be. We obsess over it.

    😎 Autonomy
    Everyone is expected to both contribute and feed back into what the best work to prioritize is. If you can justify what work you should be doing, you'll be given the support to do it.

    Overall

    If you want to be somewhere that allows you to take an active role in shaping your work and how much impact you have, this is a good place for you.
