Enova Company Culture & Values

Why did Enova recognize you as a top performer, and how has your work impacted the company?

I made an impact across multiple channels. This included building a new marketing attribution model and helping optimize our data pipeline to be closer to real time. These efforts provided clearer insights into marketing efficiency and directly contributed to performance gains, especially in our paid search channels. Throughout, I stayed closely aligned with Enova’s five values, especially “Operate as an Owner,” by proactively identifying opportunities, driving solutions end-to-end and ensuring long-term impact for the business.

How did Enova celebrate your achievements? 

I really appreciate how consistently and thoughtfully the company recognizes impact. I was recognized during a companywide meeting, received shoutouts in both department and business unit meetings, and was also highlighted in our internal Slack channels. It’s meaningful to see that kind of appreciation come from multiple levels and functions, as it reinforces that the work matters. Awards are given out each quarter to recognize employees for exhibiting Enova’s values through their work. The winners receive exclusive Enova swag and a bonus.

How has this recognition made you feel more connected to your work and Enova as a whole?

The recognition has been a big motivator; it has made me feel genuinely valued and given me the confidence to speak up in meetings, even in front of senior leadership. At Enova, our core value, “Best Answer Wins,” truly applies to everyone, no matter your level. When you bring forward a strong idea, you’re often trusted to run with it and are recognized for the results. That kind of culture makes it easy to stay engaged and push yourself, especially when tackling complex or high-impact projects.

Describe Enova’s company culture in one word. What made you pick that word?

“Determined.” Our team is relentlessly focused on achieving excellence while fostering a culture of innovation and experimentation. This determination enables us to solve both immediate challenges and future opportunities. We’re committed to empowering small business owners by helping them access the funding they need — whether it’s bridging cash flow gaps, investing in new equipment or scaling for their next growth phase.

For instance, our team is actively working to provide customers with tailored content and a simplified journey to securing the capital they need to grow their business. As a result of our collaboration across teams and testing of new approaches, customers are more seamlessly starting their application process, which means they’re able to more efficiently get the funding they need and get back to focusing on their business. This relentless focus on solving tough challenges and enhancing the customer journey embodies the determined spirit of our culture.

How long have you been with Enova, and what professional growth or development have you seen in that time?

I’ve been with Enova for four months, and the growth and learning have been incredibly rapid. I’m fortunate to be supported by a CMO and small business leadership team who make themselves highly available, offering invaluable historical insights while remaining forward-focused on growth. Their approach fosters an environment where I’m encouraged to explore new opportunities, channels and approaches and tackle challenges head-on. This has been critical in my development with the team. 

In this short time, I’ve gained a deep understanding of the unique gaps and opportunities within the small business lending space. I’m particularly focused on identifying the key obstacles small business owners face when trying to access funding to grow, and how we can better support them — no matter the stage of their journey. For example, during sales call shadowing, I learned firsthand how critical speed and clarity are in the decision-making process for small business owners seeking funding. This has anchored the voice of our customers in my mind, broadened my perspective and made me even more passionate about helping their businesses succeed.
