Yammer is THE social network for the workplace - used by the world’s largest companies every day to build community and culture, share knowledge, and connect with their leaders and each other.  

   

Why Yammer?  

Yammer was one of the first startup unicorns this past decade and we were acquired by Microsoft in 2012. A lot of what makes working at Yammer special is the unique blend of being a “startup” within a top-tier tech company.  

   

Working at Yammer has many of the upsides of working at a startup, such as autonomy and the freedom to innovate - without the downsides (drama and instability).    

• As a growing product with its own focus, we decide as a team where we want to head and the bets we want to take.    
• We do a lot with a smaller, centralized team, which means people get to wear multiple hats and have outsized impact  
      

At the same time, we also have the benefits of working at a top tech company like Microsoft:  

• Compensation and benefits   
• Internal resources, technology and opportunities for growth   
• Brand and networking   

The Yammer product is in an era of substantial growth and rapid innovation to support the evolution of remote and hybrid work 

• XX million monthly users with 80+% growth year over year 
• Integration across the M365 suite
