Additional Perks + Benefits

The last several years have placed a newfound emphasis on trust, transparency and innovation at DISQO. Employees have always been at the forefront of everything we do, but we now keep an even closer pulse on employee experience to remain agile as the world continues to evolve. Every quarter, we conduct an employee experience survey to better understand what we should keep doing and what we need to do differently at DISQO. After analyzing the results, we evaluate and implement changes that will benefit our workforce as a whole. Additionally, we measure the employee Net Promoter Score to understand overall employee satisfaction, always striving to improve our numbers based on feedback.

DISQO has also implemented a number of new ways to support and celebrate employees outside of their day-to-day work. Our People Operations team has created Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) – including committees for social impact, diversity, and workplace inclusion – to inform the organization about cultural events and provide opportunities for community involvement. For example, our DEI employee resource group drives discussions around cultural awareness, educates the organization about historical events and holidays, and shares valuable resources. DISQO has also put DE&I at the forefront of hiring, including relationships with diversity recruiting events like HackerX and WomenHack, more inclusive job descriptions, unconscious bias training, and DE&I education for new hires.
