Spool

Today on World AIDS Day, we honor the lives lost to HIV/AIDS, the loved ones who carry their memories, and the millions living with HIV around the world.

It also holds personal meaning for the team. Both Jimmy and Catherine participated in the 2018 AIDS Lifecycle Ride, cycling 545 miles from San Francisco to Los Angeles and helping raise more than $15 million for HIV/AIDS services. Their experience reflects Spool’s long-standing commitment to equity, dignity, and standing with communities most impacted.

The work is not over. Spool stands in solidarity today and always, believing that a world without AIDS is within reach.

We’re so excited to welcome back from maternity leave!

At Spool, one of our core values is authenticity. We believe in showing up fully as ourselves and leading big, full lives outside of work. That’s why we provide three months of fully paid family leave, plus a fourth month of fully paid, flexible transition time, where new parents return at 50% and gradually work their way back. We know this is a big life change, and we want to make it as gentle as possible for our people and their families.

Before becoming a mom, Taryn was a shining example of living life to the fullest — traveling, attending plays and concerts, taking classes to learn new things. Now, she’s embracing motherhood with that same spirit, little one in tow.

Welcome back, Taryn, we’ve missed you!
