How does the company support your career growth?

At Check, I feel supported in my career growth with a professional development budget and regular career check-ins! Above all, I am encouraged to expand my skills and areas of expertise - for example, I was able to transition from Business Operations into a Product Manager role.

What is your vision for the company?

We believe in a future where business owners don’t have to think about payroll; it’ll simply be embedded in the platforms they already use to run their businesses. Check is building the infrastructure to power that future, and ultimately we believe we’ll enable thousands of new platforms, millions of businesses, and hundreds of millions of workers.
