An Insider's view of Lob

What’s the vibe like in the office?

The office is one of the things I miss the most. We truly love working with each other and are dedicated to our people and our business. I love how I am able to work from my desk, our "Lob-rary", the kitchen, or any of our soft seating! It is a space that encourages collaboration, community, and constant learning.

Laura

People Operations Specialist

How do you collaborate with other teams in the company?

Collaboration is a natural part of my job as a product manager - it takes a village to ship good software and I feel fortunate to do it with colleagues that are smart, and care deeply about our customers. Typically, I facilitate discussions over Zoom to integrate diverse perspectives so we can build good products that solve our customers' data need

Ayo

Senior Product Manager of Data

How has your career grown since starting at the company?

When I started at Lob I quickly met leaders and team members who were personally interested in mentoring me and helping me thrive at Lob. In my time with Lob, I've been able to level up and grow into a position I am truly passionate about. Through the support and encouragement of leadership, I am setting the building blocks for meaningful growth.

Dolly

People Operations Coordintor

How do you empower your team to be more creative?

To empower a creative approach to problem-solving, I encourage my team to start at the ideal outcome and reverse engineer. The path back does not have to be linear and it is within their power to find the best way, each time. Instead of starting with “how has it been done before”, we instead embrace a mindset of “how can this be done now, better”.

Victoria

Vice President of People

How would you describe the company’s work-life balance?

I have tons of doctor appointments because I'm pregnant with identical twins. My team has also been completely supportive of me taking the time I need to take care of myself and my twins. The founders really care about their people - I'm excited to be at a company that not only provides maternity time (16 weeks!), but actually encourages taking it.
