An Insider's view of VSCO

What's something quirky about your company?

VSCO, being a remote-first company, promotes togetherness by hosting in-person company events. For an entire week, we have a company all-hands where we get to meet and work with every member of the VSCO team. I have never worked for a company that cares so much about every employee.

What does your typical day look like?

I start each day engaging with our community of 8M+ followers across social channels, from sharing creator spotlights to hosting virtual community dialogues. I also work cross-functionally to co-create marketing strategies for upcoming releases and to ideate new ways to amplify the diverse voices of VSCO creators and the global community.

What are some things you learned at the company?

This year I got to experience and participate in my first hack week. I never thought I had the skills or ideas to put together a project at hack week. After watching and seeing the encouraging nature of the teams, I put together my first project - and I won a prize! I love that we’re always experimenting and trying new ways of meeting and working.
