Our Culture
We didn’t capture Inc.’s attention by accident. Since DirectDefense was founded in 2012, we have focused on creating a welcoming, inclusive, team-driven culture that gives every employee room to grow and elevate in their career.
What Sets Us Apart
Inc. Magazine recognizes U.S. companies that have excelled in creating exceptional workplaces and company cultures, whether operating in a physical or a virtual manner.
Nearly 88% of our employees reported high levels of engagement at work, and our overall Inc. Workplaces score was an impressive 91.96%. The score was measured by several factors of workplace operation and culture:
- Management effectiveness
- Perks
- Fostering employee growth
- Overall company culture
- Benefits
We offer flexible in-person or remote work options, and organize several company-wide gatherings and events to get teams together outside of the workplace. When you join the DirectDefense team, you get the benefit of a small company feel with a big company impact.
Be Part of Our Story
The founders of DirectDefense left roles at large corporate environments to create a company around a shared vision: give employees the ability to work independently, advance their careers, and help further the business by applying their unique abilities.
Being a small company is a big strength – we provide you with the autonomy to grow in your role and make a difference here. With fewer than 100 employees and constant evolution, there’s plenty of opportunity to advance.
- Guiding principles of autonomy, career development, and team support
- Significant opportunities for growth
- Ability to work remotely or in-office
Proven Growth and Success
Since DirectDefense was founded in 2012, we have experienced steady year-over-year growth, even during the COVID-19 pandemic, because of our unique ability to serve clients effectively from anywhere.
We’ve doubled in size and continue to enjoy company stability and forward momentum, proving the vision and strategies of our founders.
And we do it by providing growth opportunities, support, and autonomy to our employees.
