Meet Laura Arrubla Toro (she/her), Public Relations Group Manager at Thumbtack. She recently had her first daughter (congrats Laura 🎊) and thanks to Thumbtack’s generous parental leave, she spent plenty of time bonding with her new baby girl, traveling to see family and — best of all — not having to stress about work.
At Thumbtack, we believe that in-person connections matter — that’s why we’ve embraced a virtual-first, not virtual-only model. In cities with 10+ Thumbtackers, our Local Communities provide an opportunity for employees to meet up IRL and connect in Slack about local happenings. Check out how some of our Local Communities from NYC to the Philippines came together in 2024.

Last year, Thumbtack began to develop a comprehensive generative AI strategy. In our latest engineering blog, Navneet Rao (he/him), Director, Engineering details how we approached the process by asking 3 key questions: How can we leverage gen AI to build our product? Can we use gen AI to change how we operate? Can gen AI influence productivity? Check out the full blog to learn more about our approach to gen AI, how we drove adoption and some of our key learnings: https://lnkd.in/g4Uy3d79.
