Culture & Values

  • Seizing opportunity

    We’re comfortable getting uncomfortable, because we know that if we’re not continuously evolving and improving, we’re falling behind.

  • Winning with integrity

    We love to win, but not at all costs. We always strive to act with honesty and transparency, and to do the right thing, even when it’s hard.

  • Prioritizing “We” before “Me”

    We work together as one team in service of our mission, and celebrate the big and small successes of each other and our customers along the way.

  • Pursuing progress

    We believe deeply that better, fairer, and further is always possible. We work in progress and empower others to do the same—for individuals, for business, and for society.

Benefits

  • Work balance

    For many of our people, flexibility is the biggest benefit of working at Smartsheet. Depending on your role, you can choose to work from home (with help to get set up and connected), come into an office, or blend the two to best fulfill your needs on the job and in your personal life.

  • Flexible time off (paid)

    If there’s a special day or event, we want you to be able to celebrate it without having to check if you have vacation time left. So you’ll be paid for holidays, military leave, mental health and sick days, vacation, and parental leave. And if you want to volunteer your time to make the world a better place, we’ll pay for that, too.

  • Health and wellbeing

    Taking care of our team is a priority, which is why we provide a comprehensive healthcare package. We also strive to offer the most helpful wellbeing programs, including mental health support, and can help you find experienced childcare, senior care, and more.
