ENVOY B2B | CAREERS
Join a team of smart, creative people. Learn new skills, make great products. Eat tacos.
Walk into our office and you'll find people that embody the ambitions of an astronaut - confident explorers and technical wizards that also fly the machines.
We’ve got whiteboards, an arcade, music on all the time, too many Star Wars posters, and a messy room to make stuff. And with all of this a culture that encourages getting into each other's work, supporting quality through collaboration, iteration in everything, and above all the drive to make every interaction with our clients an opportunity to help them become a better business.
Perks of being part of Envoy
Be Comfortable
Want to wear a suit and tie? Go ahead, get fancy. More of a jams and flip flops guy? That’s fine, we think jams are still cool too. Either way, wear what makes you comfortable, there’s no dress code here.
Food, Beer, Breakfast
We’ve got a cabinet full of snacks and you can usually find a beer or two in the fridge. Random taco lunches. Pizza days. Company breakfast once a month. We try to keep you fed at least as well as Mom did.
Everybody Needs A Hobby
Hobby Days let you take a day off to indulge your favorite hobby without worrying about burning a vacation day. There are three simple rules - don’t leave your team in the lurch, make up the time within two weeks, and don’t abuse the privilege.
10 Paid Holidays
We offer the standard holidays - New Year’s Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day and the following Friday, Christmas Eve, Christmas Day - as well as the day after Christmas and 1 floating holiday.
Employee Of The Year
Why have one Employee Of The Year... when you can have four. Every quarter the tiger statue is passed to another deserving employee. This honor comes with the glory of showcasing the statue on your desk, a bag or two of bagels (that you provide), and the unadorned love and jealousy of your co-workers.
GIFS!
We have our own channel on Giphy. Make GIFs, tag ‘em to Appropos, and share away. Maybe you’ll get famous on the internet.
Toys, Toys, Toys
Nerf guns, remote control helicopters, scooters, video games - we have all kinds of fun things around the office if you need to reset your brain or need to shoot space aliens over your lunch hour.
Deli Down the Hall
Forgot your lunchbox? Take a scooter down the hall to the Deli in the building and get a hot, fresh sandwich. Or some pie.
Hello Grand Rapids
Our office is located on the river with a beautiful view, right next to downtown. You’ll find plenty of tasty restaurants and great bars (some of them have karaoke!)
Restaurants/bars we love:
- JD Reardon’s
- Donkey Taqueria
