Company Profile :

LendingTree is the US's largest online lending marketplace. That means we connect customers with multiple lenders, so they find the best deals on loans, credit cards, savings accounts, and insurance. Our goal is to help people save money, and we believe the best way to do that is by giving them a way to shop for loans and compare lenders, so they make their best financial choices.

Our Founder Doug Lebda founded the company in 1996, after a frustrating househunting experience. In those days, we mostly helped people find good mortgage deals. Now, we help consumers find their best in personal loans, auto loans, business loans, student loans, credit cards, savings accounts, home equity loans, and more.

What else you should know :

- Were a publicly traded company (TREE), its listed in NASDAQ.

- We've welcomed several other companies into the LendingTree family to augment our efforts at helping borrowers make their most sensible financial choices.

- We've built the LendingTree app and My LendingTree dashboard to give consumers tools to manage and monitor their financial health.

Culture :

We are a fast-paced company with an entrepreneurial bend. We work hard and test our products often. Were collaborative, ambitious, candid, and high-energy. Our teammates are some of the brightest, most talented people you'll ever work with. We care more about your smarts than we do about the kinds of clothes you wear (but please, do wear clothes to work!), and were pretty good about rewarding innovation, creativity, and the knack for just getting stuff done.

(We even have an award for employees called the GSD, GetStuff Done).
