CrowdStrike takes pride in building and nourishing a culture that is fiercely focused on innovation and supporting employees’ professional growth and development. Within the 2018 Fortune list, CrowdStrike was recognized for offering its employees generous benefits, paid time-off policies, recognition programs, a supportive and inclusive workplace, and a direct line to company leadership.
