Benefits at Scribe Media
We care the most about what matters most: People.
We aren’t a hip startup that offers frivolous benefits like ping pong tables and kegs on tap in the office. We are a company that puts a strong focus on holistic wellness, growth, and security, so you can focus on what matters most to you.

Full Benefits Package: We don’t spend our money on ping pong tables and beanbag chairs. We spend our money on things that matter to our tribe--like a full slate of benefits that would rival any Fortune 50 company.
- We fully cover your medical, dental, and vision insurance—starting on day 1.
- We offer up to $1,500 in educational assistance to continue your learning.
- We have six weeks of paid time off, including holidays and the week between Christmas and New Year’s.
- If anything awful were to happen to you, we provide life insurance and short- and long-term disability.
- All Scribe members are entitled to 401(k) participation with up to a 3% company match.
We have a pretty cool set of principles that we live by. This is the operating system for our tribe, and everyone in our company lives the values and principles outlined in this doc.
Freedom & Flex Work: We offer a flexible work environment. You can work from home, work while you travel, work in our office, make your own hours—we don't care. You can wear a three piece suit (like our CEO) or gym clothes (like our founders) or anything else—we don't care. We only care that you do your job well. And we have lots of paid time off each year, because we believe that rest and recovery are just as important as work. But, again, this is not a remote position.
Make A Real Impact: We’re a small crew (just about 100 full-time) and you will be a major part of our team. Not only that, you won't just impact the company, you'll impact the world. Books are one of the very best ways to influence other people and change the way they think—and you'll be helping to make them a reality.
Work With Interesting People: You're not just working on any books. Past authors include major company CEOs, famous entrepreneurs, professional athletes, and people with amazing personal stories. These are books that change lives.
