Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) at Going
The DEI committee at Going focuses on transparency, accountability, and encouraging growth. Going helps people travel and experience the world—and we want our team to reflect the diverse world we live in.
Why do we conduct annual DEI surveys?
There’s no finish line when it comes to creating a thriving DEI-focused community inside and out. These surveys provide a stepping stone for our continued growth and document our progress along the way.
Our transparency isn’t only a commitment to our members but also our team. We work directly with leaders at Going to create a better space for hiring and making business decisions with DEI in mind.
As a company with under 100 employees, we aren’t required to track U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission data. We know this information is important, so we do it ourselves and publish it.
2023 DEI Survey
These are the results from a Self-Identification survey that Going employees completed in November 2023. Note: All responses are anonymous and employees had the option to select 'prefer not to say.'

Community & Family
Which of these communities do you belong to?
We create policies that support people to be their best selves, whatever that may look like.
Accessibility.
We’re a fully remote company with people across the US and a few countries. Folks don’t need to relocate to join our team.
We offer a $750 per quarter Work, Wisdom, and Wellness perk. You can use this perk to get an ergonomic chair, pay for a professional development course, or book a massage. You can get what you need to do your best work here (and you can keep it too).
Balance.
Work should fit into life; not life should fit into work.
Our 12 week paid parental leave policy is gender-neutral and inclusive of all parents, including those who adopt or use alternative methods. This benefit is available immediately to all full time employees from Day 1.
See the world, visit loved ones, and experience life in the same way we encourage our members to.
We talk the talk and walk the walk by providing time off specifically for physical and mental health. It can be used for therapy! We also partner with TalkSpace and Teladoc to provide therapy to all employees.
We recognize that we don’t observe every holiday, but employees are encouraged to take time off to celebrate theirs.
You should have time to give back to your community without taking a “PTO” day.
Training.
Anti-bias training for all interviews:
We give all candidates the space to be their authentic selves in whatever form that looks like. It’s up to us and our hiring managers to learn how to make inclusive decisions.
Third-party workshop partners:
Over the last two years, we partnered with She Geeks Out, a company focused on DEI initiatives, to help us continue to grow. Having a third-party vendor facilitate these meetings provides a blank slate with no internal biases.
DEI Committee and DEI Liaisons:
Our team is passionate about creating an inclusive environment and culture that can be seen in the daily work across the company.
Help us grow
At Going, we continuously improve our policies and initiatives to help build a diverse and inclusive company because it’s our people who shape us into something extraordinary.
