Data Over Ego — a Place for People Who Love Solving Problems

Anonymous employee

Pros

Root is full of people who care deeply about solving tough problems for customers and doing it the right way — with data, not gut feel. The culture is super analytical and collaborative; everyone’s expected to bring evidence to the table and challenge ideas respectfully. It’s fast-paced and high-bar, but if you love making decisions based on data and working with smart, curious teammates, it’s an awesome place to be.

Cons

The high bar can be intense—Root moves fast, and expectations are high. You’ll need to be comfortable with ambiguity and self-direction. But for those who thrive in analytical, ownership-heavy roles, it’s energizing.

Pros

Strong buy-in for the value of data science, AI and and automation, starting with the executive team of the company. Work with highly passionate experts at the cutting edge of their technical fields. A non-heirarchical culture where the opinions of everyone are heard regardless of rank, and there is no place for egos and cutthroat politics.

Cons

It can be hard to keep up with the fast pace of change and the ruthless, principled focus on delivering business results.
