Raise Core Values"},"content":{"rendered":"<h2>All Departments at Snap! Raise Hold to the Company\u2019s Core Values<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/snapraise.com\/raise\">Snap! Raise<\/a> is a purpose-driven company through and through. Our products help millions of students around the country raise the money they need to participate in extracurricular activities.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s exciting to see the direct impact of our work in schools and communities on a daily basis and to have our innovations recognized across the edtech space. We\u2019ve been listed on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.inc.com\/profile\/snap-mobile\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Inc. 5000<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www2.deloitte.com\/content\/dam\/Deloitte\/us\/Documents\/technology-media-telecommunications\/us-tmt-fast-500-2019-winners-list.pdf\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Deloitte Technology Fast 500<\/a> as one of the fastest-growing startups in Seattle, and have solidified a home amongst the tech giants in the high-growth hub of South Lake Union.<\/p>\n<p>But at the end of the day, the most gratifying part of working at Snap! Raise is using technology to liberate more students, educators, and youth coaches from administrative chores like fundraising, so they can focus fully on the activities they love.<\/p>\n<p>All of our team hold these values. To stay accountable to the communities we serve, and to each other, we follow a simple set of guiding principles.<\/p>\n<p>In busy moments of our day-to-day, we refer back to these core values. This framework allows us to make decisions individually and as a team that propel our vision forward, enabling us to help more programs across the country raise the funds they need to achieve more.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s how we apply our essential Snap! Raise team core values.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/snapraise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Engineering-Snap-Raise_Good-Judgement2-971x468.jpg\" alt=\"stock photo\" width=\"971\" height=\"468\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-98618\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Core Value: Initiative Balanced with Good Judgement<\/h2>\n<p>We value and reward initiative and self-motivation. We do not punish failures in execution if the idea, effort, and reasoning behind it were sound.<br \/>\nAt startups, it\u2019s natural to wear a lot of hats. If you\u2019re part of the engineering team, for instance, one day you might be doing engineering, and on other days you might be diving into some marketing work. Snap! Raise careers offer many opportunities to expand your skills.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s the kind of hustle and determination that gets startups off the ground and turns them into rocket ships. However, as startups mature and grow, it becomes important to balance that initiative with effective judgment. Sometimes, just doing things without a vetted plan causes a lot more trouble and pain. What worked in a five-person organization probably won\u2019t work in a 300-person organization.<\/p>\n<p>At Snap! Raise, we want to give our team room to take ownership and innovate, but still work together cohesively and responsibly to achieve team goals. We clarify the tradeoffs we make and the thought process behind our decisions so that everyone can effectively build their own good judgment. Ultimately, decisions are judged not on the success of the outcome, but on whether your peers would have made the same decision.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/snapraise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Engineering-Snap-Raise_Improvement2-971x468.jpg\" alt=\"stock photo\" width=\"971\" height=\"468\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-98620\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Core Value: Continuous Improvement<\/h2>\n<p>We always leave things better than we found them. We reject the status quo. We are dedicated to growth on all levels: individual, team, and company.<br \/>\nPeople, Process, Product. At Snap! Raise, we continually strive to improve all three, starting with the most important: people.<\/p>\n<p>As a startup that has grown nearly 600% in the past three years, we need to quickly grow and adapt to adjust to changing demands and stay on top of our game. Whether that means re-imagining processes or developing new product lines, we need the right people in the right seats to drive things forward. We have carefully built a team capable of growing and improving at a rapid rate, and have offered them the support they need to do so.<\/p>\n<p>We empower our people to push themselves to learn and grow, both professionally and personally. We provide the resources, whether that be budget for a conference, a formal training program for aspiring leaders, or just a book to read. It\u2019s important to us that every Snap! Raise employee is improving and making progress in their careers and their lives.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/snapraise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Engineering-Snap-Raise_Team2-971x468.jpg\" alt=\"stock photo\" width=\"971\" height=\"468\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-98621\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Core Value: Team Over Self<\/h2>\n<p>You can\u2019t build a world-class company or product by yourself. Leave your ego at the door, seek out help, and don\u2019t try to do everything by yourself. As an individual, your best resource is your team. Preserve, protect, and grow it.<\/p>\n<p>Some companies have an official unofficial \u201cno jerks\u201d rule, and Snap! Raise is no exception.<\/p>\n<p>We look for team members who can communicate and collaborate effectively. We look for people who can be relied on to be responsible for the tasks they\u2019ve committed to. To settle for anything less would hurt the team, the company, and ultimately the customers and communities we serve.<\/p>\n<p>We all have strengths and weaknesses, and we\u2019ve built a team full of passionate team players who complement each other\u2019s skills.<\/p>\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/snapraise.com\/careers\/\">Careers at Snap!
