You won’t find any cubicles here. In fact, we don’t have many walls in general. That’s because here at Small Army, we think of ourselves as one big team — office dogs included.
Whether you’re working furiously in a room by yourself, collaborating in a group, or attending one of our many offsite enrichment opportunities, Small Army wants you to leave work every day feeling inspired and empowered. Our work-life balance is off-the-charts incredible, and we have a PowerPoint somewhere to prove it. But you should really just come and see for yourself. (That way you can pet the dogs, too.)
