Reviews
Erin in incredibly approachable and very authentic. She’s been vulnerable and shared her story with the company, which has strengthened our culture, and has been a vocal supporter of IC and manager growth across the company from the sidelines. I’ve seen VPs of People / HR come and go, but Erin leads from the front with intelligence, compassion, and energy.
Erin’s integrity and energy are definitely some of her best strengths. While she blows us away with her business acumen and ability to lead a room, I think her energy, passion and enthusiasm are truly unmatched. She genuinely cares for the company and it’s people on a very deep and compassionate level. It wouldn’t be Optimizely without Erin.
She is the definition of everything good in the world. She is one of the most lovely people to be around, works hard, is empathetic, and knows when to be stern and when to listen. I just adore her and look up to her.
