We now service over 300,000 businesses and more than 2 million employees.

The EH Way

  • We are Mission First – everything we do is driven by our Mission
  • We are Remote First – we champion a remote environment with a preference for asynchronous communication and a high degree of autonomy

  • We are Apolitical – we do not take a position on political or social topics, unless it relates to our Mission
  • We live by our values – we role model our values 100% of the time
  • We expect high performance – we set a high standard and we’re not satisfied with being average
