Otta's take

Xav Kearney headshot

Xav Kearney

CTO of Otta

Leading mobile shopping and loyalty platform Fetch has seen explosive success in recent years. Its concept is simple: users receive spendable points in exchange for scans of their shopping receipts.

The app has tens of millions of daily active users with even more downloads, and has seen impressive growth, having now reached 'unicorn' status twice over. This should come as no surprise. Brand reinforcement is crucial to customer retention and acquisition - but it is harder than ever, with the fragmentation of choice on the market and the declining efficacy of marketing. So material loyalty benefits are likely to prove a crucial tool in creating and leveraging a strong customer base.

Whilst Fetch faces competition from similar receipt-scan rewards platforms like ReceiptPal and Ibotta, it is using most recent series E funding to aggressively add brand partners at a competitive pace and onboarding staff at a level that promises strong continued growth.

Diversity & Inclusion at Fetch

Shonita Torry, SHRM-CP (Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, & Belonging Specialist )

  • Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging are key areas of focus for Fetch as we grow.
  • As we build a more DEIB focused organization it is every one of our jobs to become more inclusive in our thoughts, speech, decisions and actions.
  • Diversity. The presence of a multitude of demographic differences within our teams.
  • Equity. Promoting fairness while acknowledging the different needs of individuals within our organization as they pertain to our internal processes and procedures.
  • Inclusion. Our focus on our employees' feeling they are respected, have agency and are able to participate and achieve to their goals.
  • Belonging. The sentiments and feelings of psychological safety and support when inclusion is realized. Belonging occurs when there is an acceptance of individuals regardless of their intersections of identity.
  • Our objective is for people of all identities to be included and represented across our organization. We practice inclusion and representation by amplifying voices, creating and maintaining respectful relationships, and cultivating an equitable workplace and community for all.
  • To accomplish this objective, we've implemented New Hire INCLUSION orientation on day one.
  • "My personal belief is that when a company leads with INCLUSION first, then Diversity, Equity, and Belonging will organically grow. This is what we are creating at Fetch - a CANVAS of INCLUSION. You get to help paint on this canvas." Shonita Torry SHRM-CP, DEIB Specialist

Autonomy

Oct 2021

Even in my few weeks here at Fetch, I feel that my teammates have taken time to connect with me, check in with my thoughts on projects, and truly want to collaborate/include me on things instead of just demanding things they need/want from me. I feel that it is vital to feel seen, heard, and appreciated to really thrive in one's work environment!

Design

My opinions are valued

Oct 2021

One of the first values I was told was that here at Fetch we challenge ideas not people. We want to continue to push each other to come to the best ideas and results, while continuously maintaining positive energy and a safe space to communicate what we're really feeling. As well as there being many resources for us to quickly find answers to our questions or be directed to the right person to help us!

Open and honest communication

Oct 2021

When I joined, I knew what my focus would be, but as I've grown into my role, I've taken on exciting new projects, even if they're not traditional to my role. Through this, I've developed tremendously and continue to learn faster than I have at previous employers.

You may have a job title at Fetch Rewards, but that doesn't mean you're limited. No one is better because of a title, and no one is lesser because of a title. We all work together to build Fetch Rewards, and Wes (Our Founder) really takes the time to hear out ideas in our weekly townhall. My direct manager is also very supportive and provides me with both positive and constructive feedback as I develop in my role.

My opinions are valued

Oct 2021

Fetch Rewards was 300 employees in 2020, 600+ at the beginning of 2021, and we are very likely to hit 700 by Jan 2022. This momentum isn't new. We've grown quickly, but strategically, since Fetch Rewards launched in 2013. We've gone from 0 to 10 million active users, and we're currently #1 on the app store in our category.

Growing fast

This is one of the few places I've worked that actually understands great products come from giving the dev team a direction, and getting out of their way. I don't think burnout is a major concern, but managers are on the lookout and help developers avoid it.

Teams are empowered to choose the tech stack that best solves their problem. The legacy code that's around is actively being replaced by newer, more appropriate tools.

We have a lot going on with Fetch Rewards right now and I haven't seen this type of dedication and effort in a company of people! Everyone wants to see this thing succeed and it's awesome to be a part of that.

Hard working team

My engineering manager is amazing. I haven't felt so seen or supported in a company before. Not only do we talk about work stuff and how we can keep things going up and to the right, but they dive into how I am personally doing as well. Love working at a place where people go out of their way to make sure all is well with us.

Supportive management

Oct 2021

It's awesome having a flexible work schedule! I am a Dad of 1 (soon to be 2) and life doesn't stop coming at ya. It's nice to know that if I need to run a few errands one morning or afternoon that it's okay. I can figure out what I need to get done and when and that gives my family and I the space we need to get things done and thrive.

Flexible working

Oct 2021

The opportunities for advancement, or even a pivot to a different area within the company, are plentiful. Your managers will work with you if you display an interest in doing a different job in the company, or an interest to move up into a higher position.

Career progression

Oct 2021

The leadership of all areas within Fetch is quick to call out great accomplishments and excellent work. Hard work does not go unnoticed.

Operations & Strategy

Great work is recognised

Oct 2021

There is no such thing as a "work-life balance" at Fetch. We all live a life that work is a part of. If something in your life pops up that may interfere with work, the leadership here understands that and allows you to do what you need to do, whether that may be picking a sick kid up from school, running an errand that can't wait until the end of the day, or leaving early for an appointment. It is things like that that make me love to work for this company.

At Fetch Rewards YOU matter. Each employee is an owner, and is empowered to contribute to the mission and outcomes of the company! Teams and individuals can operate with autonomy, guided by strong leaders who clearly communicate vision and direction and clear the way. One of Fetch's core values is defeating the odds – and this is something I see us do every day.

Autonomy

Oct 2021

Fetch is incredibly transparent about career progression. Reviews are on the more informal side, and happen often (not restricted to annual like prior companies I've been in). I'm able to focus on the particular areas I'm weak in, and continue to hone the areas I'm strong with regular feedback from my peers and manager.

Wes is the perfect balance of in the weeds and in the clouds. I know that he has my back when I need it, and believe strongly in his vision for Fetch. The entire leadership team bring expertise and compassion and ambition in the areas they lead.

Strong leadership

From day one I was blown away by the focus on employee mental health. Taking time off is expected and never met with opposition by management, and ever measure seems to be thought out to avoid burn-out.

Software Engineering

Focus on employee wellbeing

Oct 2021

Teams take direct ownership of their systems, meaning they get to do everything from ideation to execution to maintenance. Being able to see the whole process means you get to learn from your own mistakes and learn to iterate effectively. On top of that, there is the opportunity to switch teams internally if you feel as though you are stagnating or even just need a change in the work you are doing.
