Mission: Clio's mission is to transform the practice of law, for good.
We are proud to announce that we just raised $250M USD marking the largest growth stage transaction in Canadian history! Join our team as we transform the way legal services are delivered and create access to justice for all. http://glassdoor.com/slink.htm?key=vMlSX
We're more than just a tech company. We're focused on transforming the practice of law, for good, by serving a better solution to a centuries old profession and doing some good in the world while we’re at it.
We know our technology changes lives. If that's something that speaks to you—you belong here, too.
Clio has successfully grown from 2 to over 500 employees by investing in our people and product, in that order. To achieve our mission of transforming the practice of law, for good, we rely on our both human and high performing culture.
Clio was named one of Canada’s Best Managed companies, and selected by Waterstone Human Capital as having one of Canada’s 10 Most Admired Corporate Cultures. Our employees have a founder’s mindset, which drives them to take responsibility for the company’s success, push boundaries, discover new solutions, and forge their own career path.
To better understand how we think, consider our values below. Our values were created collaboratively by a cross-functional team of Clio employees, and are are part of every decision we make, every day.

We're all here to do meaningful work and transform the centuries-old industry of law—and transform our careers at the same time.
Our leadership comes from Salesforce, Amazon, the ACTIVE Network, Zynga, and more, and they believe in mentorship and sharing their expertise. You’ll never hear "that's not your job" here. Instead, you’ll be encouraged to explore and build a meaningful career that works for you.
We believe in learning at all levels. From company-wide lunch and learns to opportunities to speak at and attend industry-leading conferences, you'll find many ways to refine and expand your skill set.
We'll invest in your learning and development through innovative leadership development programming, an internal coaching program, and tuition and book reimbursements.
We provide an RRSP matching program, a highly competitive parental leave program, and an RESP contribution program to help you plan for you and your little one's future.
We believe in benefits that take care of the whole person. We have remote fitness and wellness classes, mindful meditation, and more. Our Burnaby office features a yoga room, a zen room, an on-site gym (membership costs are on us) and a bunch of puppies when you need to unwind (that’s right—we’re dog friendly). Please note that all Clio employees are currently working remotely due to COVID-19.
As part of our initiative to ensure that all employees have access to proactive and preventative mental health resources, our Clio Cares program offers a unique complement to our extended health benefits and robust Employee Assistance Program. Clio Cares provides an additional $2,000 to spend per year on Clinical Counsellors, Registered Psychologists, or Licensed Social Workers, over and above the coverage provided for paramedical providers. We’re proud to offer this benefit for all employees, regardless of level or role or tenure.
I have been working at Clio full-time (Less than a year)
Pros
They are really trying to get the remote working experience right. So far with what they have shared, it looks very promising. They still have work to do but they moving in the right direction. Will update this review once DxD is fully implemented.
Cons
Some aspects of work from home requires a human/in-person element. Clio is avoiding this until a vaccine is out. Feels like we are missing out on some of that legendary office experience.
Application
I applied online. The process took 3+ months. I interviewed at Clio (Toronto, ON).
Interview
3 steps over a course of 3 months - HR screen, interview with hiring manager, and finally a 2hr full-blown real business case presentation to department panel, immediately followed by a stakeholder panel interview
After reading through most interview experiences, this appears to be the MO for the hiring process. It reinforces the notion that potential candidates are doing and solving business challenges as assignments for free in the hopes of joining the team
The job description also kept changing over the course of the weeks/months
