Pros

Audible has been incredibly supportive of my desire to learn and grow from day 1. Over the years, I've been encouraged to develop skills and expertise-- both at work and through courses outside of work-- beyond my immediate role and I've really appreciated that about my time at Audible.

Cons

Honestly, I've had a really positive experience.

Pros

I joined the company because I am a firm believer in their People Principles! It's evident that leadership, including managers and supervisors, are committed to ensuring that Audible is a company where all feel welcomed, included and appreciated. I've only been here a short while, but I'm already thrilled to be part of the Audible Family!

Cons

Due to Covid-19 networking is a bit challenging, but the company offers a lot of employee engagement tools via online meetings (Chime) and opportunities to volunteer. I'm looking forward to things getting back to normal so that I can hopefully meet in person all these colleagues I've grown to respect and admire.
