THE SOUNDTRACK TO TEAMWORK
Coming together for users hits a high note
Collaboration on the SEO and Product Shopping team sounds pretty sweet. Brian Levine and his colleagues kick off every other Friday with a shared playlist they’ve put together. “I can’t think of a better way to start the day than discovering new music,” Levine said. The musical exchange recalls the team’s collaborative approach to tackling technical endeavors like creating new shopping pages and fine-tuning site page performance, which connects users to their musical passions in a seamless manner. “It’s great working with a team of people who want to help me perform at my best,” he said.

We enjoy talking through problems with each other to come up with new ideas, and we take care to ensure that we all grow together.

TUNED FOR TEAM MEMBERS
Flexibility is the headliner
Whether it’s in-office, remote or flex — which is a mix of both — employees have the option to work in different modes thanks to Reverb’s hybrid work model. For parent-of-two Colleen McClowry, the flex model allows her to tend to both personal and professional life thanks to an empathetic, supportive culture. “There’s this understanding for everyone — not just working parents, but people who have other commitments outside of work — of being a good teammate, but also having this other facet of your identity outside of your career. The hybrid work model really supports that,” McClowry said.

People’s lives outside of work have meaning, and as a working parent, Reverb’s flexibility and transparency has been pretty transformational for me.

UNCOVERING AREAS OF IMPACT
Capitalize on the opportunity to innovate
According to Pavan Sarguru, non-U.S. users of Reverb haven’t had a site experience that’s “truly domestic” to them. But as one of the founding members of the International Product Team, he seeks to change that by localizing the site experience for customers across the globe. Sarguru described the work as “offering a wider range of payment options, showing users listings that are more relevant to their location and expanding our language localization efforts.” While the team might be new, he said this is just the latest example of Reverb matching interests with professional opportunities.

Reverb does a good job rewarding curiosity. There have been several points during my time at Reverb when I’ve asked for different opportunities and my requests have been honored.
