What People Are Saying About Square

  • Mission & Purpose: Work is tied to “economic empowerment” and widely used seller tools (payments, POS, capital, banking), giving many roles tangible small‑business impact and clear product‑market fit. Company materials position this seller focus as central to helping entrepreneurs start, run, and grow.
  • Benefits & Perks: Total rewards are described as competitive, including salary, equity (RSUs/ESPP), comprehensive health coverage, mental‑health support, and generous parental leave. Additional perks such as wellness allowances and remote‑work support are highlighted across employer materials.
  • Work-Life Balance: A distributed/remote‑friendly model and hybrid options are emphasized, with flexibility enabled by modern tooling and collaboration across locations. Practices can vary by team, but official materials stress location flexibility over strict timekeeping.
