The Company

Workweek is a media & technology company on a mission to connect, inform, and inspire professionals by intertwining unique insights with personality, community with technology, and productivity with fun.

In short, we do 2 things:

1. First, we build media brands focused on specific business verticals that are driven by individual content creators (For example, I Hate It Here is an HR media brand driven by content created by our Chief People Officer Hebba Youssef)

2. Then, we launch professional communities for those media brands’ audiences with the goal of fostering connection & growth for those professionals in their careers (For example, the Safe Space community, which is made up of members of the I Hate It Here audience.)

Simply put, we help professionals grow in their careers by providing them with the information, network, and resources they need to thrive.
