Diversity, Equity,
and Inclusion at
Lever
Don’t trust comfortable.
“At Lever, one of our core values is ‘Don’t trust comfortable.’ If we don’t push ourselves to see the hidden inequities and biases in our hiring practices and our workplaces, they will remain. In living this value, we make Lever a great place to work, provide tools and resources to our customers, and enrich our communities.”
Sharing Perspectives
Our commitment to diversity and inclusion started with a taskforce of just 10 employees but has become a fundamental part of our culture.

What we’re doing
DEI is fundamental for us—from who we hire, to the technology we design—and we know accountability is key. That’s why we’ve initiated programs, like bi-annual 360 performance reviews, regular rewards analysis, regular DEI panels, several ERGs, and our diversity and inclusion task force. We also do an annual market assessment of salaries to ensure equitable compensation for all as the market and individual responsibilities change.
