Our Ways of Working
We have team members located across the United States spanning multiple time zones. This means we put in extra effort to make sure we connect and collaborate in ways that make sense for us. We know how valuable the flexibility of remote work is for our employees. Due to the nature of this role, we would expect someone to be onsite in our Los Angeles location 2-3 days per week to support our exempt and non-exempt employees on site.
We know that personal connection is the foundation for the great work we do together. In order to quickly build those relationships, we offer the opportunity to meet with coworkers in person two times a year at a full company offsite and a departmental offsite. These are great opportunities to meet the people you work with every day and to do some of the work that is much more difficult to do virtually. Most of our roles are fully remote, but these opportunities to meet in person will involve limited amounts of travel.
What the Role Is
The Sr. HR/People Operations Generalist is one of the go-to people for employees, supporting a best-in-class employee experience that drives high performance. You are passionate about working with people and figuring out how best to support the valuable work they provide in service of our mission.
