FOUNDED

2020

Our mission is to help the world build transformational communities.

Our core beliefs

Creators transform individuals and change the world.

In coming years, millions of new creators will follow their life’s calling.

The best way for creators to thrive is to build transformational communities.

A world powered company with world class talent

We seek exceptional individuals around the world, set them up to do the best work of their lives, and in turn, create a meaningful impact in their own lives.

We don't track hours, but we do manage for high expectations very closely.

We collaborate across time zones, are highly async, and like to document a lot.

Twice a year, we bring the whole company together in beautiful places around the world for our company offsites. We’ve hosted offsites in Turkey, Portugal, Mexico, Thailand, Colombia, and Italy.

“Circle is the best job I’ve ever had.”

Kushal Sharma— Head of Data and RevOps

“I always feel empowered to share my thoughts, knowing they’ll be heard and considered. Everyone’s voice is valued at Circle, and every idea is given the attention it deserves.”

Lina Bodnaruk— Sr. Marketing Designer

“I don’t think I’ve ever worked with such a friendly and supportive bunch of people. Everyone here wants to see you succeed.”

Erik Meath— Sr. Customer Success Manager

“Circle’s values are evident and embraced across the company, clearly communicated from day one”

Donald Frith— People Operations Coordinator

“Circle founders are just built differently. I’ve never seen a company with leadership that is so close to the product and the team”

Eduardo Pedroso— Lead Engineer

“I’m consistently impressed by the people I get to work with — their knowledge of the market, expertise, and decision making process.”

Marcus Guido— Demand Generation Lead

Our values

We do our best to live by our values — not just preach them.

Long-term thinking

We’re here for Circle’s future and value its long-term mission. From time to time, we pause and reflect on the fundamentals. We constantly seek to make trade-offs which benefit Circle’s mission over the course of the next decade — not just the immediate month or quarter ahead.

Trust and autonomy

We strive to find exceptional talent around the world, set them up to do the best work of their lives, and in turn, create a meaningful impact in their own lives. We don't track hours, but we do manage for high expectations very closely. We collaborate across time zones, are highly async when possible, and like to document a lot.

Bias for action

We jump to action with passion and positivity. When faced with challenges and opportunities, we’re able to move fast and get things done. We value achieving tangible outcomes above all else.

Product first

We care deeply about building a world-class product and share a relentless pursuit of excellence, with a strong desire to make our customers incredibly happy. We’re open to sharing or receiving constructive feedback about our product at all times.

Grow together

We give honest feedback to others with the best intentions, and listen to valuable feedback when it’s shared with us. We strive to operate with a growth mindset and grow individuals along with the company. We own our mistakes and avoid finger-pointing when things don’t go our way.
