What’s KB Burnell’s favorite thing about Route? The parties. “Kidding! Kind of,” she clarified. It wasn’t the parties themselves, but the idea behind them: Recognition. In a fast-paced startup environment, Route’s management never forgets to make space to be proud of their people. That drive to celebrate extends even further, into DEI initiatives — like Route’s annual “Celebrating Connections” event led by the Women’s ERG. This event aims to empower women in tech and e-commerce and bring the whole company together, regardless of if employees are in the office or remote.
