How You Grow Matters — Here’s RISK’s Way

How You Grow Matters — Here’s RISK’s Way

Purposeful Growth

Instead of just growing fast, we grew on purpose. Our story isn’t about hyper-scaling — it’s about doing the right things at the right time, with the right people. And yes, the numbers prove it.

At RISK, we don’t scale for the sake of it. We build with care — choosing clarity over chaos, and people over processes.

We grew from 375 to 1,300 teammates in just 18 months. Behind that number is a bigger story: culture that stayed strong, systems that scaled smartly, and people who kept recommending us.

Our eNPS jumped 10 points. 85% of teammates across 50+ countries say they’d recommend working at RISK — and nearly half of our hires now come through referrals.

What Drives Us

So, how did we get here? Not by shortcuts. Not by hype. The answer lies in five fundamental principles that drive everything we do: strategic growth over rapid scaling, technology-enabled empowerment, learning, development, and culture as our competitive advantage.

The HiPo Program: Promotions You Can Plan For

What if your next team lead is already here? That’s the idea behind HiPo — our fast track for the 4% of internal talent handpicked for leadership.

In 2024, 54 people were selected — and 91% got promoted. Our 2025 cohort includes 72, with 35 already stepping into new roles. These aren’t generic promotions — they’re part of a clear, intentional path to senior and C-level leadership.

Your development plan starts before your probation ends. Every 6 months, you’ll have structured 1-on-1s to track your growth:

  • What skills do you need?
  • What’s next on your path?
  • How will your compensation grow?

It’s all mapped in our internal Job Matrix — your personal GPS for progress. And you’re never on your own: our Talent Development team is there with learning tools, mentoring, and real support.

In the first half of 2025, we conducted 170 tailored learning sessions to support individual and team growth. The impact? 87% of our employees feel the company actively supports their development.

Goodbye Chaos. Hello Clarity.

We build systems that help people work smarter, not harder.

We focus on implementing tools that genuinely enable people to do their best work — with greater clarity, reduced friction, and no micromanagement.

Digital That Drives Real Decisions

We use Asana to make goals visible, decisions faster, and chaos disappear. In just one month, we managed 777 projects and 199,441 tasks. Transparency enables everyone to understand priorities, own responsibilities, and see how their work connects to broader goals.

Support That Actually Supports

Our One Tap Support system delivers quick and clear help: over 1,050 HR requests were resolved in five months, with a 9.9/10 satisfaction score. No long waits. No silos. Just real answers.

Find it. Learn it. Do it.

Our internal Knowledge Base gets 1,000+ views a day because it works the way people think. Within a month, we documented 95% of all policies and processes and designed intuitive search to make knowledge accessible.

Culture Is Core, Not a Perk

Our +10 eNPS boost came from clear expectations, honest conversations, and real room to grow.

From team hikes to company radio, we’ve hosted 50+ events in five months — because culture needs connection.

Real Life. Real Benefits.

People have different needs — so our benefits adapt. We cover medical insurance and medication costs. We offer home cleaning, veterinary care, relocation assistance, and language support. Most importantly: personalization.

That’s why 87% of our team rate our benefits 9.02 out of 10. It’s not just generous — it’s relevant.

What’s Next? Even Better.

We’re not slowing down — we’re scaling what works and skipping what doesn’t.

We’re building the kind of place where top talent wants to stay, grow, and thrive.

As we enter new markets and take on bigger challenges, we’re doubling down on what got us here:

  • Transparency in how things work
  • Clear career paths from day one
  • Investment in development over micromanagement
  • A culture that brings people together

We won’t promise it’ll always be easy. But it will be honest, exciting, and full of growth opportunities.

Joining RISK isn’t just about a job. It’s about growth, ownership, impact — and a team that’s got your back.

If this sounds like the kind of place where you or someone you know would thrive — check out our open roles or visit our referral page.

Great people know great people. Help us find them — or become one of them.
