Company Description

Honcho is here to help change workplace culture through communications. We're on a mission to make inclusive and compliant cultures a norm instead of an ambition. And we're doing that through our software that helps train employees as they type, similar to spellcheck, but for ethics and compliance.

Everyone at Honcho is committed to seeking to understand, meeting people where they are, looking for ways we can help, and making sure that we're working with commitment and integrity.

If this sounds like it aligns with your career mission and values, we'd love to hear from you.
