Scribd, Inc.
About The Company
At Scribd (pronounced “scribbed”), our mission is to spark human curiosity. Join our team as we create a world of stories and knowledge, democratize the exchange of ideas and information, and empower collective expertise through our four products: Everand, Scribd, Slideshare, and Fable.
We support a culture where our employees can be real and bold; where we debate and commit as we embrace plot twists; and where every employee is empowered to take action as we prioritize the customer. When it comes to workplace structure, we believe in balancing individual flexibility and community connections. Scribd Flex gives employees the ability to choose the daily work‑style that best suits their individual needs. We also prioritize intentional in‑person moments to build collaboration, culture, and connection, so occasional in‑person attendance is required for all Scribd employees, regardless of location.
