What employees are saying

I am able to use my expertise and apply it to solve real world problems. I feel like what I do will help make the world a better place. At home I have the flexibility to take care of my personal obligations and still meet work goals. I really love the support and flexibility GreenLight gives parents.

I get to do amazing things and feel appreciated for the work I put forth.

I feel like I'm working toward an important goal. I love the work I do on my team, and both my managers and the company as a whole recognize the value of the team's work in multiple ways.

Good place to learn different things, great work life balance and employee-centric

I feel like the project I work on is impactful and I can contribute to it meaningfully. My coworkers keep me engaged and motivate me to perform at my best potential. I am included in diversity efforts, which are strongly encouraged by the leadership, and I feel appreciated for the extra work that I put in.

I have the opportunity of a lifetime to make a meaningful impact for humanity and our planet.

My job gives me satisfaction that I am giving my best to achieve company goals. Good company culture and teammates add values in it. Company benefits are also really good. Overall I love my job.

It's rare to come work for a team that is so busy yet provides such support and flexibility. As an intern, I have the opportunity to learn a lot and provide real value to the team while also taking point on projects and leveraging and improving existing skills. These factors enable me to get the most out of my internship, creating an immeasurable amount of value as I move forward in my career. The data teams seek to improve processes and learn as much as I do, and even though I'm an intern, I'm not treated as "just the intern" -- it truly feels like my feedback, ideas, questions, and skills are just as valued as the rest of the team.
