M1's Commitment to Diversity

Our Values

Our team embodies our ten core principles and if these principles speak to you – we’d love to talk with you.

  • Mission Driven - We know that financial well-being has a dramatic impact on an individual's quality of life. We are passionate about helping people in this domain.
  • Extreme Ownership - We are responsible for the results to our clients, teammates, and shareholders. We own everything in our domain that affects these results.
  • Boldness - Thinking small is a self-fulfilling prophecy. Thinking big inspire results. We would rather fail at the meaningful than succeed at the trivial.
  • Ruthless Prioritization - We want to do more than we possibly can. We must be disciplined on how to use our precious money, people, and time. That means saying no to a lot of good ideas so we can focus on the most important thing.
  • Integrity - We do the right thing. This trust must never be broken.
  • Effectiveness - We do what's needed to deliver the intended results. Whether that requires disciplined process or scrappy implementation, we find a way.
  • Team Oriented - We work collaboratively to achieve more. We respect, trust, and support one another.
  • Transparency - We use simple and clear communication to share information so that people have the context to make good decisions.
  • Make Forward Progress - Something is better than nothing. We make incremental improvements on our path towards perfection. Crawl, walk, run, and then sprint.
  • Resiliency - We understand that any big goal comes with ambiguity, change, and setbacks. We adapt and keep going.

  • Competitive Pay and Stock Options
  • Comprehensive health, dental, vision, disability, and life insurance
  • Retirement benefit with employer match
  • Unlimited PTO
