An Insider's view of Favor

Favor truly talks the talk and walks the walk when it comes to prioritizing team members’ personal lives, mental health, and work-life balance. Favor creates opportunities for team members to relax, recharge, and focus on mental health and overall wellness.

Amanda Going

Account Executive, Sales

What does your typical day look like?

I appreciate that I have the flexibility to switch it up and work in the office some days and work from home others. No matter where I’m working, I spend my days coding, collaborating on projects, and connecting with my peers!

Shruthi Krish

How does the company support your career growth?

I’ve been lucky enough to pivot my career from Sales to Product Management and even luckier to have been able to do that at Favor. I couldn’t think of a better place to foster the foundation of my career as a PM than among such a unique and caring group of product leaders!

Demi Young

Product Manager

How do you make yourself accessible to the rest of the team?

I’m a HUGE believer in the power of 1:1s, and the importance of keeping a regular check-in on the calendar with my team members. If we are able to have that baseline of consistent, reliable check-ins, I find that my team members are more comfortable reaching out and scheduling additional time with me if they need it.

Kim Klask

Director, Engineering

What makes someone successful on your team?

Favor is a healthy place for an engineer for many reasons, particularly because of the high level of trust and autonomy. There is zero micro-management, zero gate keeping, and big opportunity for high impact. A successful engineer will need to be a self starter, with a high degree of ownership in their work.
