Song Wang<\/span><\/h1>\n

Former Senior Associate on the Credit Card team<\/span><\/h2>\n

With Avant in 2019-2024<\/span><\/h2>\n

What\u2019s it like to work @Avant? We asked Song for his take on our culture, and here\u2019s what he said:<\/h3>\n

1. How would you describe Avant\u2019s culture?<\/h3>\n

\"Song<\/a>Everything moves fast here, and as we grow, we\u2019re constantly trying new things and building new processes. That means that sometimes, we make mistakes\u2014we\u2019re not superheroes! And what most surprises me every time I make a mistake is the way my team focuses on solving the problem and learning from it, not blaming for what went wrong. We hold each other accountable, of course, but we don\u2019t waste time shaming or pointing fingers. It\u2019s that tolerance of the learning process that gives me the courage and confidence to take on something new.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

2. Why are you happy\/successful here?<\/b><\/h3>\n

I have always been eager to learn new skills. I take pride in my ability to acquire knowledge in many different areas, from sciences to humanities, and apply it to my own work. When I started at Avant, I was so happy to discover that my broad knowledge base enabled me to try everything I wanted to try here. I\u2019ve been able to work across different teams, help out with so many different initiatives, and learn a ton. When I\u2019m ready for something new, there\u2019s always something for me to pick up\u2014and even if I\u2019m not quite ready, Avant challenges me to get out of my comfort zone. This company allows me to do anything I want using everything I learn, and that is a perfect match.<\/p>\n

3. How is who you are and your identity welcomed and included at Avant?<\/b><\/h3>\n

Two things made me choose this question in particular.<\/p>\n

First, I\u2019m a foreigner of Asian nationality, and during Covid, #StopAsianHate has been one of the most widely discussed topics in society due to the increase in hate crimes toward people with Asian background. With all the news of attacks, I was pretty terrified to go out for a while. Avant really picked up the issue and started a conversation within the company about how we address discrimination against the Asian community. That was great, but I did notice that the first company email on the topic used the term \u201cAsian-American.\u201d While it was used in a well-intentioned way, I and many other Asian Avantees don\u2019t actually fit under the umbrella of \u201cAsian-American\u201d! No one else wanted to speak up about it, so I decided to share what I was thinking at the company\u2019s Community Conversation on #StopAsianHate.<\/p>\n

I was really happy to see that my concern was quickly recognized by the leadership team and then addressed at a Town Hall as well. That told me that Avant not only wants to stand up for this community, but also listens to a voice from within the community to make sure that we\u2019re respecting everyone. Avant follows through on their good intentions with real support, and it gives me the stage to step up and press for a solution when I think something\u2019s not right.<\/p>\n

The second point is about the LGBTQ+ community. I care a lot about how any company I\u2019d work for protects this community, and I am cognizant of everything that Avant does for us. For example, the impressive education efforts on topics like non-binary gender, different orientations, adding your pronouns to Slack and email, and what \u201cqueer\u201d means really makes these topics approachable for people who may be totally new to them.<\/p>\n

Avant doesn\u2019t just do the Corporate America thing of putting up the rainbow logo during Pride Month (and, by the way, the rainbow Avant logo looks really good), it actually cultivates awareness around the entire organization and shows how they care about these communities. It\u2019s not just that Avant supports different identities, we celebrate them. These things make a difference, get people to pay attention, and help ensure the rights of our community.<\/p>\n

4. When you were little, what did you want to be when you grew up?<\/b><\/h3>\n

A doctor. All the other kids hated going to the doctor, but I loved it. I just think it\u2019s a fabulous job. You can literally stop people\u2019s pain by asking them questions and figuring out what\u2019s going on. I even asked my parents to buy me a medical school textbook\u2014thousands of pages about medicine, and I really read it. My goal when I started my education was to do pre-med and medical school, but it didn’t really work out because I was allergic to all of those chemicals in the lab! But I still have a strong interest in understanding people, how they behave, how they interact, how society operates.<\/p>\n

If you think about it, it\u2019s very analytical work. Doctors gather information, analyze it, and produce a solution, and that\u2019s the model I use today. The intention behind my whole career trajectory is to use my knowledge about people\u2019s behaviors to create value for customers and grow the business.<\/p>\n
