Auth0 announced a Series F round of funding today. This is our sixth capital raise (seventh if you count our seed round) and I am filled with as much gratitude with this round as when we secured our first $50,000 from our first angel investor six years ago. The past few weeks have given me pause to reflect, not only on the appreciation I feel for our investors, but also on the sea of change I have witnessed in the first half of the year.
Far too many incidents, including the recent murder of George Floyd, the tragedies of Ahmaud Arbery, Christian Cooper, Breonna Taylor, and many other injustices, continue to spotlight the deeply rooted racism, prejudice, and discrimination in our country. Watching in despair over what’s happening in this country – the country I have called home for the past 16 years – I simply can’t stay silent any longer. We cannot and should not stay silent.
At Auth0, we care deeply about ensuring that our employees, customers, partners, and their families are safe. In uncertain times like these, this commitment only becomes stronger. We also know that Auth0 provides critical functions for all of our global customers, and we hold our responsibility with the utmost business ethical importance. I understand that everyone is dealing with many different stressors as a result of COVID-19. It is a very stressful time. Kids are at home from school closures (like mine are), people are caring for family members, and everyone’s worlds have been turned upside down. As a result, my biggest piece of advice has been to be extra kind, patient, and flexible. We truly believe in our core value of ‘One Team. One Score,’ and are committed to it through thick and thin. I have been so proud to see the acts of kindness and patience at Auth0, and team members stepping up to help each other over the past few weeks. We all need to continue to be kind to each other.
We are honored to be included in FlexJobs's 'Top 100 Companies to Watch for Remote Jobs in 2020', and in Built In Seattle's "Best Places to Work in 2020' for our flexible, remote-friendly culture.
