WHO WE ARE
The Desire Company has built the world’s only community of experts who tell the truth about the products they actually use and trust in the form of video product reviews. Having just closed a Series A round of funding, we’re at an exciting stage in our evolution which will see us grow our team by over 200% by the end of 2023. If you’ve ever wondered what it would be like to work in a start-up during the exciting growth phase, imagine there’s an awesome team of passionate, smart, talented, and nice people, all working together to achieve ambitious goals and make a real difference in the world. Working remotely across 6 different states, we’re innovating every day, moving quickly and with purpose, to bring truth and integrity back to product reviews in a pretty innovative way. (If we do say so ourselves.)
At the heart of our company is our incredible community of experts – from Lady Gaga’s Dance Captain to Pink’s make-up artist, to Rihanna’s back-up dancer, to Jennifer Anniston’s Pilates teacher to Charlize Theron’s stylist to NFL Players, top chefs, artists, and more – who share their wisdom, experience and knowledge through honest product reviews, how-tos and classes. Beyond getting to work with some very cool people, what we’re doing matters. Working with professionals – not influencers – helping people get informed – not influenced and working with some of the world’s top brands and retailers to change the way people get the information they need to make good decisions about the products they’re buying. If that wasn’t enough, we’re committed to making The Desire Company a great place to work. A place where we value our employees and the important contributions each and every person makes to our success.
