What the Team is Saying

The diversity of characteristics that make up our team is what makes Avant great. We proactively explore ways to play to the strengths and uniqueness of our culture and stay connected whether Avantees are in person or remote. We are working hard to preserve the key elements of our culture — which are centered around relationships — as we scale.

Margaret, Chief Operating Officer

As soon as I started, it was clear that I had the ability to make a difference at the company. My feedback was taken seriously and resulted in multiple different operational changes even though I was in an entry level position. I’ve now been with Avant for more than 10 years, and in that time I’ve held more than seven different roles.

Dave, Senior Director, Compliance Advisory

It starts with reviewing my project prioritization list to determine whether anything should be modified (Legal follows the agile methodology for project management). Then I usually spend my day meeting with business and risk partners where I act as a strategic legal partner. From there, I take the necessary action to address and clear my list.

Sharity, Director, Legal

Avant has a deeply ingrained culture of understanding and empathy towards parents. We all wear multiple hats, and Avant respects that being a parent is one of the most critical roles we can play. From flexible hours to managers encouraging parents to attend their child’s school events, Avantees are encouraged to prioritize their duties as parents.

Pritam, Senior Manager, Product Management
