Pros

Runway is the most innovative company I have ever worked at. All ideas are welcomed no matter who they come from or how ambitious they might sound. I feel truly valued and respected here and feel like I can bring my full self to work.

Cons

We move extremely fast which can be exiting for some people and not the right fit for others. I personally enjoy the fast pace since I felt burnt out from so much red tape at previous companies.

At Runway, we're on a mission to make content creation accessible to all, and it starts with building and fostering a team that represents the world around us.

We also believe that employees should be able to bring their full selves to work and feel respected and valued. Everyone should feel like they belong.

At barely 50 employees we already have several initiatives in place with a lot more in the works:

Education & Support
- Mandatory Unconscious Bias training for all new employees within their first 90 days
- Regular DE&I events and programming to raise awareness and build support across various communities
- Internal DE&I committee
- ERGs 

Benefits
- Quarterly company donations to an organization selected by our employees
- Equal, competitive parental leave regardless of gender

Recruiting
- Actively sourcing from a diverse pool of candidates & seeking out candidates from underrepresented groups
- Limiting unnecessary job requirements such as college degrees to ensure a more diverse applicant pool
- De-biased and consistent interview process
- Inclusive candidate experience with transparency throughout the process 
- A dedicated Culture Add interview led by someone from a separate department to ensure impartiality

These are just a few initiatives with many more to come as the company scales!
