AllTrails | $100,000 - $130,000
Steph's Notes:
Given the listed duties and that this position reports to the VP of Operations and will collaborate closely with senior leadership, it really needs to be more senior than a Senior Manager (I'm thinking at least a Director of Support, if not Head of).
As a result of the misalignment between duties/seniority and title, the salary for this position feels a little low.
If not for the above, I'd have put this job in Green Means Go -- the description is otherwise thoughtfully written, the Careers page is informative, and the benefits are excellent.
Actually, just took a look at the application and saw that it asks for an applicant's current location and current company, both of which are unnecessary info that they could probably just get from your resume anyway. Don't love that.
