Working at getAbstract has been a career highlight; the people, the culture, the product. It's fulfilling to know that our work helps millions of people around the world with their development. It's a privilege to be a part of this fantastic family.
Joining getAbstract is more than a job; it's a chance to be part of a team dedicated to helping individuals grow and learn. As part of the Rights Team, I am fortunate to collaborate with publishers, authors and media partners on a national and international scale.
GetAbstract is a perfect blend of startup & corporate culture. It’s small enough for innovation, yet large enough to feel safe in the process. It’s great to be a valued member of an inspiring, open-minded team working to improve people’s professional & private lives.
As an Account Manager for the EMEA team, I learn so much from the organisations I work with every day. The most important thing to me is the culture – an open, honest, genuine & diverse team passionate about making the world better with our market-leading summary service.
As a software dev leader at getAbstract, my team has freedom to develop creative solutions. The family atmosphere is actively promoted through events & team outings. The company also sponsors running enthusiasts for races like the Lucerne City Marathon.
I love working for getAbstract, as it's more than a job, it's a community & a lifestyle. Flexibility, sense of belonging & trust in decision-making all impact our customers positively. Leaders who encourage you to succeed make it a great place to work too.
getAbstract gave me the room & support to change my focus from the Rights team to the LAB team. They not only believe in an existing skillset but see potential for growth and the chance for team members to develop it within the company.
Working for getAbstract allows me to live my mission, learn and serve others. I learn daily from our content and clients, and put that knowledge into action. I help others through expanding their curiosity and contributing to positive change in their work and lives.
