Frequently Asked Questions

Job Satisfaction

Fora invests in the everyday things that boost job satisfaction: a quarterly OKR process so every person can see exactly how their work drives company goals, biweekly all-hands where wins and priorities are shared openly, and an annual engagement survey that People Ops turns into real action plans with department heads. 

On top of that, employees get unlimited PTO plus four weeks a year to work from anywhere, wellness and fitness stipends, free weekly lunch and daily snacks at HQ, peer recognition through Lattice "praise," and regular team outings (from boxing classes to happy hours) that build genuine relationships outside of work.

Willingness to Recommend

Fora has been recognized externally as a great place to work: named to Built In's 2025 Best Places to Work, a 2026 TIME100 Most Influential Companies honoree, a Fast Company Most Innovative Company (2023 and 2025), a LinkedIn Top Startup (2024), and a finalist across three categories—including a win for DEI Champion—in Skift's 2026 IDEA Awards. 

But the best evidence comes from the team itself. Describing what convinced them to join, one engineer said: "The positive energy I got from everyone I interviewed with, from management and leadership to other engineers, made it easy to see myself working there." Eight months in, they added that Fora is "very family-friendly and growing fast," and that they're excited to come into work each day.
