How it all started
Once upon a time in northern Minnesota, our founder Chad Halvorson found himself frustrated by having to call the grocery store where he worked or drive all the way in just to check his schedule.
He knew there had to be a better way, and When I Work was born.
Sound familiar to you? We’ve all been there with our first hourly jobs. And this is where most small businesses find themselves.
We love helping them save time, and giving their employees a voice in their scheduling. Join us to be a part of the story.
How we work
We are a remote-first company, so we mostly work from home. If you want to work in an office, we have a really cool one in downtown Minneapolis.
Feel free to claim a desk! No matter where you work, though, you’ll find that we have a ton of ways to stay connected and we like to have fun.
