We’ve built a culture that will work for you.
Working at Acart
We strive to do the best work for our clients, and we do it all while working reasonable hours. We’re flexible and collaborative, and we focus on building a welcoming, inclusive environment where every person who works here has an opportunity to thrive.
Hybrid work environment
We can create an even better workplace – one where we are more connected and are able to find the perfect balance between work and home, personal and professional. Acart is in the office Tuesday through Thursday.
Unlimited paid vacation days
When you start here, you don’t have a fixed number of paid days. Instead, you can request paid time off when you need it. This applies to personal days, sick days, and vacation. We want you to succeed, and this means supporting you to take time away from the office to recharge.
Work while you roam
This flexible approach introduces the ability for staff to work up to a maximum of 6 weeks per year fully remote from a wide selection of locations.
Comprehensive group benefits
Our group benefits include life and disability insurance, generous coverage for health, dental, and vision, and a fully covered Employee Assistance Program.
Professional growth & fair compensation
Where you’re going matters to us. Career management and mentorship along with a continuing education support program means we can help you get there. Our pay bands ensure compensation equity and give us a benchmark for measuring performance.
Other nice things
From a pet-friendly office environment to biannual company offsites, a company paid breakfast every Tuesday, as well as commission on new business opportunities, and a $1,000 employee referral bonus. Nice.
Our beliefs
To build a great environment together, we work from a collective set of beliefs. When everyone is on the same page it’s easy to have a good day at the office.
We work
together
We can’t do what we do without each other. Each of us has a different skillset, a different point-of-view, and owns different parts of the process. Embrace this and use it to help solve whatever you’re trying to solve.
Have an
opinion
Your experience got you here, and with that experience comes a point of view. Expressing your opinion ensures we have diversity in our thinking and that enables better problem solving.
Be curious
Nobody has all the answers and it’s ok to say: I don’t know. If you’re wondering about something – project info, decisions being made, lunch options – hone in and ask some questions.
Own your success
Own what you do. For you to grow, and for our company to grow, it’s important we aim just outside our reach. We can all be leaders and decision-makers.
We trust
each other
In a fast-paced environment nobody intentionally tries to get under your skin. If you’re feeling put out: give the benefit of the doubt, have a conversation, and then work to resolve it.
Enjoy your work
We get to come up with creative solutions to all aspects of our business. We get to push the envelope, evolve, learn, and grow. If you’re not having any fun – find out why and we’ll figure it out.
Open positions
Are you ready to work with a highly strategic and creative team? If you can solve problems with big ideas, and care about results – you belong at Acart.
