Tree.com Culture

Our Core Principles tell you everything you need to know about how we run our business and manage our work relationships:

Build Truly Outstanding Products

Build truly outstanding products for consumers and customers. We help people at incredibly important and complex times in their lives. Find breakthrough ways to surprise and delight them with insight and clarity.

Be Open and Candid

Be open and candid about our successes and our shortfalls. Mistakes are fine, as long as they're small, quick, not repeated, and we learn from them. When we celebrate wins, try to also point out why something succeeded so we can learn from that too. Be candid and honest about our business, our products, our processes, and our people.

Act with Urgency and Creativity

Search for ideas everywhere, inside and outside the company. Test, debate, and develop ideas until you quickly find the best answer. Then, execute with urgency and a sense of purpose.

Take Charge

Take charge. Ask for the ball. Make a decision and stand by it. Or at least step up and propose a clear course of action, and if you can't get an answer quickly, move out.

Set Big Goals And Be Accountable

Set big goals AND hold yourself, your co-workers, and your company accountable for results, no matter what obstacle is in your way. Results matter. A lot.

Commit to Excellence

Have big ambitions. Live up to your full potential. Keep learning, and don’t be afraid to take on more responsibility and tackle larger challenges. And, to live up to your full potential as a leader, it's critical that you empower, encourage, help, and teach others so they can reach their full potential too.

We reward stellar performance with incentives that can often include bonuses and equity. The more you contribute, the more you stand to earn. Bureaucracy is a dirty word at Tree. We work hard at streamlining our processes and making sure that the path from the entry level staffer to the CEO is short and easy to navigate. Check out our Employee Profiles to see what real life employees think of life here. You’ll see the same themes repeated again and again . . . a commitment to invest in our employees, the nurturing of a fun, friendly and dynamic work environment, a relentless focus on WOWing our customers and a desire to succeed despite obstacles.
