People

We want Wikimedia to be a place where our employees feel supported, connected, and clear on the rules of the road. We do this by:

  • Demystifying HR systems: We strive to make the rules and processes clear so our employees can focus on what they do best.
  • Supporting people when they need it: Need help with career goals, leaves, or anything work-related? We strive to support our staff as they navigate their work lives.
  • Building a community: Strong bonds make a difference. We create opportunities for our employees to connect with colleagues, celebrate differences, and work together as a team.

The end goal? An amazing employee experience that unlocks our employees' potential and helps fuel the Wikimedia movement. We're building a culture that puts people first, so our employees can thrive, grow, and do their best work.
