Startups, when done right, are magical: places where ambitious, hard-working people unite to build the impossible.
But lately, it feels like there’s more bloat than ever. There are oversized teams of people who treat work like a 9-to-5 checkbox, folks who chase titles over crafting great products, and company politics that stifle progress. There are sluggish teams, ineffective managers disconnected from the customer, and people who just don’t care.
We know because, in the past, we hired a lot of those people. We learned hard lessons. And now we’ve zeroed in on what makes someone a true fit for Vise. If the below strikes a chord, we’d love to hear from you.
You find deep meaning in your work. You’re less focused on chasing “work-life balance” as your top priority and more driven by a role where you can tackle big challenges and grow relentlessly. You see your career trajectory and the company’s success as intertwined, not at odds. You’re committed to getting 1 percent better every day. You embrace “burning the boats”—a no-plan-B, all-in mentality. You’re genuinely obsessed with what’s best for the customer. You have an unrelenting hunger for excellence. You don’t see this as a pit stop to coast through before hopping to the next shiny thing—you want to build something enduring.
As for us, we’re creating a platform for financial advisors that, if we succeed, will transform the personal finances of millions for the better. We’ve made real strides toward that vision. But we haven’t crossed the finish line yet.
And the only way we get there is with hungry, talented, ambitious people. Like you.
