Empowering everyone to achieve their professional best.
We started Pathlight because we were tired of reinventing the wheel. When you start your first job, you have to figure out how to manage yourself. Then you become a manager, and you have to figure out how to manage and motivate people. These are hard problems, but they are not new. Now that all of our work happens in the Cloud, there is finally an opportunity to build a new, transformational solution.
Our vision is to empower everyone to achieve their professional best. The first step in achieving that vision is to build a platform that allows everyone to know exactly how they are doing and how they can improve. We all deserve to have this information – unbiased and in real-time – and we shouldn't have to interpret a dashboard, juggle 20 tabs, or create a pivot table to get it. You certainly shouldn't have to wait for someone else to tell you at your next 1-on-1. It should be as easy as checking the weather.
Something magical happens when a person, a team, or an entire org knows exactly how they are doing and what they need to focus on. They get better, quickly. They get better, together. We built Pathlight to help every single person be their professional best. And we’ve just begun.
Our Values
Shine a light
We believe in creating a more transparent world and empowering everyone to be their authentic selves. Shining a light looks like being yourself, providing honest feedback, highlighting wins and losses equally, transparent communication, and striking a balance between being candid and kind. Pathlighters shine a light wherever they go.
Raise your bar
There's no greater force than exponential growth. Expect the best from yourself and others— this means leaders, teammates, new hires, and especially candidates in the interview process. Never lower your expectations. Strive to raise that bar every day.

Wear your customer cap
Pathlighters wear our customer cap in all that we do. We commit to empathizing with and empowering the frontline. We work to deeply understand our customers’ challenges and earn their trust in every interaction.
Run towards the fire
Seek the hardest problems and focus on solving them with energy and urgency. Ruthlessly prioritize — you can only put out one fire at a time.

Grab a paddle and own it
We are all in the same boat, so grab any paddle and help out where you can. There is no such thing as “that’s not my job.” There is always a way to contribute. Pathlighters are always willing to dive in and own new things. They take accountability, commit to their promises, and deliver.
Choose optimism, check ego
Every day we actively choose to be positive and to prevent ego from getting in the way of collaboration. We stay optimistic about the future and never doubt our ability to drive change and positively impact others/the world. Pathlighters stay humble and say no to politics. We put the success of the company over personal gain.
