Elastic

"For me, flexibility is the key here at Elastic. It's a grown up environment, where I can work around my family commitments. I love the way diversity and inclusion is such an important topic, actively looking to change the way everything thinks about it too. "

"This culture depends on trust and empathy. Although we've grown quickly and there may still be some pockets of teams that are correcting boy's club mentalities, the vast majority of the company cares for one another and trusts each other. The empathy towards individuals, teams, and the entire team of Elasticians is really impressive. I've never worked at a company that was so caring and thoughtful."

"Gender equality is core to the company values and includes regular pay equity analysis by external vendor"

"You would likely need to: Be confident about your boundaries (working time). Take advantage of existing benefits - they are helpful. Participate and engage in diversity groups, learning opportunities and conversations. Use your voice, make sure you are heard. Bring other women along, especially in tech roles. Be a champion of something (learning, talent brand, a resource group, etc.)"

"This is the most supportive company I've ever worked for. There is a tremendous amount of flexibility, and it's 100% acceptable to block your calendar when you need to pick up kids from day care, catch your kid's soccer game, schedule a doctor appointment in the middle of the day, etc. I've never felt guilty about doing that, whereas at other companies I've always felt judged for doing that, as if I was slacking in the middle of the day."
