Heap named Glassdoor’s #1 Best Place to Work in 2019
#1 on Glassdoor
“‘Great people, technology and culture!’ It’s this trifecta that has led the San Francisco company to be named #1 on Glassdoor’s list of Best Places to Work for small-to-medium sized businesses.” – Glassdoor
We have a 4.9 rating and 98% would recommend Heap to a friend.
We’re a small team building the analytics engine that powers 6,000 companies and helps them make smarter decisions.
Overview
Heap automates away the pain of data. Other analytics tools require you to define events upfront and manually instrument code. Instead, Heap automatically captures everything: clicks, submissions, taps, etc. This lets our users analyze data instantly and retroactively, without writing code.

LIFE AT HEAP
Our Values
We lean on our core values to help us build a winning business and a working culture we’re proud to be part of. Each of our values is a thesis for how we execute as a company.
Taste the Soup
Our thesis for how we execute in the right direction
We believe that empathy is the key to delivering a great product. And nothing builds empathy better than experiencing the world as our customers do — “tasting the soup” in as many ways as we can. The more insight we get on our customers, the more insights they’ll get from us.
Prioritize Until It Hurts
Our thesis for how we move quickly
We believe in the Pareto principle: 80% of the results come from 20% of the work. We identify the few things with the highest leverage and over-achieve on them. If our non-goals aren’t giving us heartburn, we’re probably not executing with enough focus.
Emphasize Slope Over Y-Intercept
Our thesis for how we hire and develop
The most important decisions we make are choosing who we work with. Period. We want teammates with immense potential (slope), not just those with past success (y-intercept). A little bit of slope goes a long way.
Assume Good Intent
Our thesis for how we collaborate
Great businesses win on collaboration. Our collaboration hinges on the Principle of Charity. We default to assuming good intentions. If we don’t understand something, we embrace curiosity rather than judgment. In all cases, we own the impact of our actions.
Heap’s Commitment to DEI
Our Culture
Heap is committed to maintaining a diverse, equitable, and inclusive community within and outside of Heap.
To do so, our committees, including the DEI and Culture Committees, meet regularly to gather feedback and best practices on our DEI initiatives. Heap also supports our Employee Resource Groups, like Heap-Womxn and Heap-Pride, to celebrate and foster a diverse, inclusive community in our workplace.

Virtual-First Culture
Virtual-First Culture
We believe the best work happens when people can be their best selves, which is why Heap embraces a virtual first culture. Virtual first maximizes flexibility, work/life balance, and personal freedom, but still allows for physical collaboration and socialization.
