Get to know us with our Rokt’star handbook
We’re Rokt. A mission-driven, hyper-growth community of curious explorers. We recruit bold thinkers, from a range of backgrounds, and smart humble people who enjoy building a disruptive business. Sound like you? Read our employee handbook to learn about our benefits and training and find out how you can be a part of our journey.
There are plenty of organizations that use words like tapping ‘the potential of their people’ or ‘unlocking what's possible,’ but I haven’t found any organization that has dedicated as much to doing it – what we call unleashing potential.

Creating a candid culture
Building a people-first culture and empowering everyone to have an equal voice is our first priority. We share info about every aspect of the company: our salaries, weekly CEO reports, bi-monthly global events, our annual conference, and this very handbook.
Know the next rung on your career ladder
Rokt’s Career Ladder document lays out what skills you need for each of our roles, as well as the salary and equity for each position. This information is visible to all Rokt’stars. And each quarter, we re-evaluate the document to keep up to date with economic changes and make sure our wages stay competitive.
Come for a chat whenever you need
Bruce Buchanan, our Founder and CEO, hosts regular office hours for questions and discussions from Rokt’stars. Alternatively, if you want to stick to online communication, submit questions on Google Chat. These can be anonymous and are answered by our executive teams.
Creating a place where we all belong
Creating a culture of belonging is fundamental to our success as a company, allowing us to foster top talent and set everyone up to do their best work.
Equality
We believe diversity of perspectives and experiences drives innovation and problem solving. There’s no place at Rokt for discrimination, harassment or unequal treatment of any kind.
Diversity
We celebrate having a diverse group of Rokt’stars who want to recognize days that are culturally or religiously important to them. We recently launched a program where Rokt’stars have a flexible public holiday structure to allow them to choose their own public holidays. Employees can select time off for holidays that are meaningful to them.
Inclusion
We’ve got a wide range of Employee Resource Groups that provide safe spaces for Rokt’stars to come together. These spaces allow them to share their experiences with others and provide perspectives on community issues, needs and policies that help make Rokt an inspiring workplace.
What you get from us
Enjoy best-in-class benefits designed to support your physical, financial, developmental and emotional wellbeing.
Equity
We give all Rokt’stars equity. If we succeed, everyone is rewarded. Our US employees also have access to retirement plans with a 4% dollar-for-dollar 401K matching plan.
Health and wellness
We provide a variety of health (physical and mental) care programs, including a zero cost monthly premium option in the US. We also offer a monthly Wellness allowance and Wellbeing sessions.
Learning and development
We invest in you and your development through ongoing training, education, and coaching — paid for with your annual ‘Level Up’ training allowance.
Time off and flexible working
We give our team 20 paid days off, five extra high-five days, 16 paid weeks of parental leave, and volunteer days for all employees.
We run a hybrid work environment with four days a week in the office. And one week each quarter, you can work from anywhere in the world.
We’re proud of what we have built in our first decade and look forward to continuing to execute our vision of unlocking relevance in ecommerce, and unleashing the full potential of our Rokt’stars, into the next decade and beyond.
