Job description

We’re Squeeze, a feel-good company, from the Founders of Drybar.

A bit about us: Squeeze was designed to revolutionize the massage experience, from our forward-thinking technology to our dedication to team member experience. We are focused on the human side of business, and we work to foster an inclusive environment, where everyone can shine bright. It's so important that we've made it our company mission to be the best part of our guests’ and team members’ day.

Our revolutionary app-based booking and payment platform makes scheduling, paying, tipping, and rating easy, breezy, Squeezy. Similar to Postmates and Uber, after a Squeeze massage, instead of dealing with a clunky, stressful checkout process, our guests simply float out with the ability to tip and rate their therapist at their leisure post-massage. Personalized services allow guests to select massage preferences as well as control in-room settings from lighting to sound, all in a beautifully designed space. It’s a completely fresh approach to a way better massage experience.

• Health benefits (including vision & dental) and 1-week paid vacation for our employees who work just 32 hours or more. That’s as few as 4 shifts per week!

• At Squeeze, all add-ons are complimentary. That means no quotas or upselling!
• Annual performance raises ($1/year)
• Flexible schedules
• Responsive, empathetic, and understanding Management providing on-site leadership
• A revolutionary, feel-good culture (including snacks to keep you fueled, points from peers redeemable for gift cards, and branded swag)
• Quarterly paid training: we bring in an outside speaker to train on everything from mindfulness meditation to personal finance, all in the interest of helping our team members grow
• Nurturing, supportive environment, no matter where you're at in your career
• Leadership and career advancement opportunities in management and training
• Team-building offsites
• Feel-good partnership with Canine Companions (for every membership sold, we donate a day of canine support to a person with a disability)
