An Insider's view of Taboola

What are some social events your company does?

We do everything from hosting happy hours to city bike tours. We love to poll our Taboolars on what is working for them and what they want to see more of. As the Regional Manager for the Americas & LATAM, it's a beautiful thing to watch all the regions I support come together to participate in one initiative. For me, that resembles true community.

Regional Workplace & Experience Manager, Americas

How do you collaborate with other teams in the company?

I work with Account Managers and Sales teams in setting a common goal to provide accurate and valuable materials for our clients. As a LatinX "Taboolar" and ERG leadership committee member, I collaborate with our SOMOS Taboola community to analyze our company culture and provide education about the LatinX culture to the rest of the company.

Kristy Dardano

Senior Advertising Sales Planner

What makes someone successful on your team?

We look for individuals with a strong sense of self, who are inquisitive and passionate about their work. Someone who is a self-motivated team player, who is also inspired by the impact their work has on the team is successful.

Ning Ning

VP, R&D

How do you empower your team to be more creative?

Every employee brings a level of passion with them to work, a willingness to take on a certain level of risk. We talk weekly about our values, our failures, and victories, making it perfectly okay to fail, but to make those failures learning experiences so that we can continue to improve and focus on (ninja style) execution.

Adam

CEO

How does the company support your career growth?

I'm part of a team that genuinely wants to help me grow as an engineer. I'm challenged every day to build products with the latest technologies, such as machine learning, at massive scale. Everyone really feels like family, with a genuine investment in you, personally and professionally.
