What makes it a Best Place to Work:

■ In the last year we’ve codified our mission — to close the gender income and opportunity gap in professional sports — and implemented into all sales decks among other places. We have a culture where employees feel recognized and celebrated — we have a “Shout-outs” section at our weekly all-hands where employees acknowledge great performance/efforts they’ve seen from colleagues in the prior week.

 

■ I am inspired by what we do, and am inspired by my co-workers, many of whom are current or former pro athletes. We are a diverse group of people driving to a common goal, in which we all believe so deeply.
