Client Testimonials

“I had the pleasure of working with an HR Consultant from Reverb shortly after I started a new role as Diversity, Inclusion, and Learning Lead at Bungie, an independent developer of interactive entertainment. Reverb provided strategic HR and design support on the creation of a new goal setting process. They also helped us to develop supporting materials such as a self-guided resource to create goals and templates to capture and track progress. This newfound strategic alignment throughout our organization will have a beneficial impact on our People Team processes, our culture, our employees and our leaders for a long time to come.”
Kelsey Wesley, Diversity, Inclusion & Learning Lead, Bungie
“Our HR consultant from Reverb was a great resource for our upcoming US team. We were growing and needed an HR specialist who had a great deal of understanding of US HR environments and she fit the requirement perfectly. She helped us with our initial version of our handbook, HR processes, and customizations as & when required . She was highly valued for her views among the leadership team and has been a great resource through and through.”
Shrijata Basu Saha, Senior HRM, iMerit
“Working with the team at Reverb has been a valued constant in the hectic day-to-day of running a fast-growing startup. I've had the pleasure of knowing the team for the past four years as we've grown from 15 to 150 FTEs. From leadership coaching, manager training, executive HR support, and a trusted sounding board, they've been that rare vendor that has fully crossed into being a partner. Even as we build out an internal People/HR function, I look forward to continuing to work with and learn from Mikaela & team for years to come.”
Xiao Wang, Co-Founder and CEO, Boundless

FAQ

A: People Operations, or People Ops, is a way of practicing HR that focuses on employee development and well-being. Some companies use the name People Operations instead of Human Resources.

A: In many ways, yes. However, People Ops implies a more employee-centric approach to HR.

A: People Ops helps create strategies and policies that ensure all employees have what they need to do their jobs. That can range from tools, to training, and a culture where everyone can do their best work.

A: Absolutely. We would love to learn more about you, and what brings you to Reverb. We’ll work together to identify options and solutions.

A. We are DEIB champions and approach all of our work through the lens of helping companies create healthy, inclusive culture.

A: So many! Working with a consultant can be cheaper in the long run, allowing  you to flex hours up and down depending on your needs. For fewer hours a week / month, we can get the tactical needs of your day to day operations met, as well advise leadership on what’s next. In addition:

  • Our team is senior, independent, and works with limited supervision. They are thought leaders who do hands-on work, strategize with the CEO, and everything in between. 
  • Our senior people operations consultants have 15+ years of experience and have led HR at smaller companies and/or held senior leadership roles in enterprise organizations.
  • If your consultant is not available (for ex. hiking without cell service) and something urgent comes up, we can quickly find another team member to help. 
  • We pride ourselves on being a one stop shop for HR support as well as people development including manager training, leadership development, and coaching so you only need one vendor.
