Sendbird Compensation & Benefits
Frequently Asked Questions
We want people to do their best work and feel good doing it. That means full company-subsidized medical, dental, and vision coverage, generous PTO (including your birthday off and 2 rest and rejuvenation days), parental leave, and life and disability insurance. We've got the fundamentals covered.
What sets us apart is the Be Your Best Self stipend: $3,500 a year to spend on whatever helps you grow. Therapy, books, gym memberships, professional development, massages. It's yours to use however makes sense for you.
We're flexible about how and where you work, but we do value real collaboration. If you're within an hour of a Sendbird office, we ask for at least three days a week in person. And when it comes to pay, we benchmark against similar-stage companies and are transparent about how we set ranges. No guessing games.
