Our company is built intentionally—on exceptional people, high-performing teams, and a culture centered on excellence and ownership.
Who We HireWe are ridiculously selective because every new hire—interns included—should make us better. Our vision is simple: high-performing, self-directed teams made up of 100% awesome teammates. We look for people who are motivated to maximize their contribution and who elevate everyone around them. Successful Flywheel interns are:
- Hungry – self-motivated; they embrace hard work and see challenges as a chance to learn, grow, and contribute
- Humble – they use "we" instead of "I" and sincerely appreciate the strengths of those around them
- People smart – strong communicators who listen well and make their teammates better
Excellence at Flywheel is both earned and enabled. You'll be surrounded by people who operate at a high level and expect the same from those around them. Our culture is defined by:
- Personal ownership of outcomes—we act like owners, not bystanders
- Front-line innovation—the people closest to the work make better decisions faster
- Accountability, clarity, and honest feedback—we actively debate, commit, and hold each other accountable
- A growth mindset—we know there are always two ways to do things: the current way, and a better way
When everyone is clear on the mission and trusted to execute, extraordinary results follow.
