- Deep sourcing among executives and managers.
- At least 15 years of experience in business journalism covering leadership and workplace transformations.

- Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision insurance plans
- Matched and vested 401k plan
- Access to resources for financial planning guidance, family planning services, mental health reach out and Employee Assistance Programs (EAP)
- Additional benefits include commuter benefits, phone reimbursement, gym membership discounts, and more
