What We Bring to the Table:

• Competitive and fair compensation: We believe in fair pay–equal pay for equal work. For each title, we consistently apply competitive salary bands based on market data and benchmarks which are reviewed twice a year. What you’ve been paid before, fear of conflict, or willingness to negotiate does not play a part in determining your pay.
  • The annual base salary range for this position is $127,000 – $135,000. Placement within the range is determined by a variety of factors, including but not limited to: knowledge, skills, years & depth of experience, and equity with internal team members. Total compensation for this position includes equity. 
• 401(k) retirement plan: We offer both a Traditional and Roth 401(k) with a company match.
• Company-paid medical: Our medical, dental and vision premiums are covered 100% for you and your dependents.
• Paid parental leave: Welcoming new family members is exciting, but it can also be challenging. We offer twelve weeks paid leave for primary caregivers and four weeks for secondary caregivers.
• Unlimited vacation: At Storyblocks we take vacation seriously. That means take the time off when you need it. Don’t worry about tracking hours or accounting for partial days. Typically, employees take about three or four weeks each year. Plus, two company-wide week breaks in July and December.
• Workplace benefits and perks: As a fully remote company, we’ve got you covered no matter where you are. Remote work stipend? Check. Company and team events? Check.
• Flexible work options: As long as you deliver results, you are welcome to get your work done during unusual times when desired.
• Company-sponsored mentorship and growth: We encourage attending virtual meetups and are happy to host them as well. We also have a leadership coach, on staff, available to all employees to enhance your professional development.
• Employee perks: We help employees maintain work-life balance and honor their contributions to the organization by offering resources such as a financial wellness program, a subscription service that offers unlimited deliveries from thousands of eligible restaurants with $0 delivery, and a recognition and rewards program that celebrates their accomplishments.
• Casual Work Environment: Sure, we all get dressed up once in a while, but in general, we want you to be comfortable – whatever that means to you.
