An exciting perk we offer is our Thumbtack Bucks benefit — where employees get reimbursed for hiring pros on Thumbtack. Anthony Robinson (he/him), Sr. Product Marketing Manager, knew the best way to get in his boxing workouts was to hire a pro on Thumbtack to help. “One of many ways I've utilized my Thumbtack bucks is by hiring a pro to set up a heavy bag in my garage. At first, I was weary because the bag was 150 lbs, but the pro was able to secure it safely to the wall. I'm looking forward to having the pro hang a few more boxing-related workouts!”
