🏖️ Benefits

• Fully Remote – We’ve completely embraced and invested in remote work and know the benefits. Save time, save money, and decrease stress. Our experience shows that remote work fosters a healthier work/life balance for our people. We do get together once a year for an annual offsite meeting, but in-person attendance is optional. • Flexibility/Autonomy - Need to run to an appointment, your child's school, or just want to take a walk outside? No problem. If your clients’ needs are met and your work gets done on time, enjoy! • Stability – While we serve startups, we aren’t one. We’ve been around for almost a decade enjoying controlled growth over that time. We don’t over-hire, and thankfully, we’ve never had to do a reduction in force. Our service offering is niche, accounting is essential to businesses, and the potential market for our services is diversified/vast. • High-Quality Colleagues - We’re a diverse bunch, experts in our respective fields, and eager to help each other and clients. We care about each other as whole human beings. • High-Quality Clients - We work exclusively with venture-funded technology startups and early-stage companies who are creating some of the most exciting and transformative products and services in the world! (We also have a “no jerks” policy; our clients treat our people professionally and respectfully.) • Purpose/Meaningful Work – This is not your average accounting role. Kruze professionals get to work with innovative startups that are disrupting their respective industries and creating the products and services of tomorrow. Like proud parents, we derive vicarious enjoyment as our clients grow, get additional rounds of funding, and ultimately get acquired by Fortune 500 firms. • Professional Development – You’ll gain exposure to many types of clients and industries including SaaS, eCommerce, Healthcare, Biotech, Crypto/Blockchain, and Manufacturing. At Kruze, you’ll have the opportunity to learn multiple disciplines and work with a wide variety of high-visibility clients and find your passion.
