: Simplifying Life Online
If you use a computer for anything other than the word processor, then you probably have a ton of different accounts that are all password protected. And you might have written down those passwords in a notebook or on a post-it note, only to lose that written piece of vital information as quickly as you wrote it. Dashlane is working to eliminate this problem entirely. Dashlane is a New York-based tech company that acts as a secure password manager for all your different accounts.
Jean Guillou, a co-founder of the company and VP of Engineering, said, "At Dashlane, we want to create an open and transparent environment, inclusive and multi-cultural. Everyone in the team is encouraged to take initiatives, take ownership on new ideas, and deliver quality products to millions of users. We have high expectations for our engineers while maintaining a flexible and friendly environment."

Dashlane heavily values its people. Every single employee has a headshot with a detailed bio on the company's website because they are proud of who they've got. When you get onboarded, you get thrown right into the action with this company, but in a good way.
"At Dashlane, the whole company is in your corner. From my very first day, everyone was transparent and supportive of my goals. I was walked through everything I needed to do to position myself for success. It is truly refreshing to have the whole team rooting for you, and I'm rooting right back for them," Russell, Senior Sales Development Representative, said.
Because every employee is seen as an asset to the company, every employee has a say in what happens in one way or another.

The thing I enjoy most is working together as a team to solve interesting business problems that make an impact."
Dashlane is also all about being as efficient as possible. They want to get things done with the least amount of resistance as possible. Staff Accountant Elya Shavrova said, "In order to be efficient, you have to understand what you're doing, why you're doing it and who your ultimate audience is. On my team, once we research and understand the task at hand, we're motivated to put together the most efficient and long-term solution."
