Life at Pion

Where People Thrive

At Pion, we’re driven by big ideas and bold thinkers.

Our purpose is clear. We make it possible to reward those who shape our world, from Students to Healthcare workers and more. That mission demands diverse perspectives and a culture where everyone belongs.

Our people power everything we do from innovation to collaboration. We’re here to break down barriers and build a space where everyone can grow, learn, and thrive—because affordability starts with empowered people.

Check out our SHARP values to find out more about our culture.

Research shows that while men apply to jobs when they meet 60% of the requirements, women and those in underrepresented groups tend to only apply when they tick every box. We don’t think you should have to tick every box. We value your uniqueness, and it goes without saying that all applications are welcome, even if you don’t think you fit the criteria.
