So before giving you the HR pitch, I'll tell you that I've been here 2 months and I love it. I'm heading the mobile division, and I have big projects, get to do creative strategic work, and work with smart people.

I met a bunch of people at startup school that were job searching, so I thought I'd post this here. And I'm putting my personal email on here so that you don't feel like this is a generic job post.

You are both "well-funded" and "Pre-funding"? 99% retention rate? You've had 100 employees already working for at least one year and only one has left?
the blurb at the bottom is HR speak. We are pre-funding in that we haven't raised a venture round yet. by well-funded, they probably meant we have money. We do, because we're profitable.

As for retention, yes, we have 99% retention, but since we're growing so fast, we don't have 100 people that have been here a year, but we do have over 100 people. Cut it however you want, the point is we have really good retention. especially compared to our competitors. :)
