What It's Like Working Here

We are a purpose-driven team, passionate about improving the quality of life for every single person on the planet.

We also regularly meet up throughout the year for all-expenses paid, global team-building get-togethers. You will travel the globe on our dime.

Everyone on the team is proactive and hungry to build something meaningful. We hire people that need to be slowed down and encouraged to take vacation, rather than people who always need encouragement to speed up.

We manage by giving you deeply specific objectives, 100% clarity on your role, weekly recognition, and altruistic punishment. Rewarding great work means punishing mediocre work. If you aren't passionate about your work, this won’t be the right fit.

However, if you are tired of carrying more than your share, tired of your work going unrecognized, and instead dream of working at a fast-paced, high-impact work environment, then working at Bía will be refreshing.

This is our offer. We give a lot, we expect a lot. That's the deal.
