Thumbtack

Thumbtack has been so supportive of every new challenge I want to take on. Open source our mobile design system? Done. Lead a nine-month, six-team project? Let’s do it. Become an engineering manager? Let’s figure it out!

“What’s different about Thumbtack is that I know the tangible value and impact my work has at this company. With a mission that directly supports communities, Thumbtack allows engineers to feel empowered by helping local professionals and consumers. I’m proud to make a difference at work every day."

Thumbtack understands my long-term aspirations at the company. I'm given the autonomy to work on projects and events that are not only exciting and challenging, but also the most impactful to the employee experience.

Every single person I talked to in the interview process felt very honest, straightforward, and humble. The common denominator among them was a desire to work hard, with zero ego. It was such a refreshing environment, and made it a no-brainer.

The Pro Expansion team is a part of the Growth org at Thumbtack, which means we're constantly building and experimenting with new features to help make the pro experience more engaging. We're currently focused on rethinking the way pros bid for leads on Thumbtack, a change that will impact all pros across the nation. It's an exciting time to join.

In contrast to other companies where it may take months before you are given agency in code/projects, within my first few months at Thumbtack I'd run experiments in production, was given the opportunity to scope out larger projects, contributed to the codebase, and even was able to volunteer for social activities.

Why did I join Thumbtack? First would be how comfortable I felt during the interview process. The people I spoke with seemed really genuine and the benefits and pay were amazing! Now that I’ve been here over 2 years, I can say that I am very happy I joined. Thumbtackers are genuine and the company really cares and it shows. My role here is seriousl

Thumbtack makes everyone feel welcome. People come first here. There’s incredible support from the team to take on new opportunities and grow professionally. Teams are very friendly and value open discussions. We all help out one another.

The team at Thumbtack is filled with smart, kind, collaborative and humble people. We all have the same goal and you can feel that we're striving towards that goal together in every initiative we partner on. It's why I've stayed for over 5 years.
