the Apple II was built with just 25 employees. since then, we’ve slid into tech incrementalism. today, most software companies are fundamentally unambitious, but Rippling is hiding in plain sight.

Whoa. Rippling is five years old and still shipping big, new, company-defining features. That’s a very encouraging sign, because that ability is what distinguishes the really big tech cos (e.g. Amazon, Google, Apple) from others.

Customer Success at Rippling
One of my favorite things about Rippling is the people. I love working every day with some of the most talented, intelligent, hard-running, and personable people in the game.

A few companies, after getting to know them, end up feeling “inevitable.” And nothing has felt more inevitable than the emergence of Rippling as the system of record for employee data and one of the most important software companies of our time.

HR Business Partner at Rippling
Rippling provides me the opportunity to work at the intersection of HR & Technology, and the best part is that I get to do this with a group of really talented and driven individuals. That’s what drives me at work everyday!

Engineering Manager at Rippling
I think of my job as making the lives of our customers & internal team easier. I get super pumped up whenever I see a success story.
For years I wondered which company in the enterprise space would have the vision to challenge Microsoft, whose holistic view was always more appealing than even the best siloed SaaS apps. Rippling paints a vision of a single source-of-truth for everything employee-related in a company—and a future where Rippling is employers’ one-stop shop, impressive in breadth and depth.
