ABOUT GOODR
We create and sell active eyewear for anyone. No Slip. No Bounce. All Polarized. All Fun. Interested in joining our team? Keep reading.
OUR VALUES: We have two core values: Fun Authenticity.
FUN = Being sh*tty isn’t fun. Agreed? Taking pride in your work, finding joy in being GREAT, and celebrating wins… and losses. Now, that’s fun!
AUTHENTICITY = Focusing on being authentic over being liked. (Next-level guru stuff. Count it.)
Fun Fact: We do not allow email to be sent internally. Carrier pigeons only. JK, we use Slack.
SUSTAINABILITY: We think Earth’s pretty rad. That’s why we take action wherever possible to limit our impact on the planet.
1% FOR THE PLANET MEMBER: 1% of goodr’s annual sales go directly to environmental organizations.
CARBON NEUTRAL: In 2019, goodr became a 100% carbon neutral company .
Fun Fact: goodr celebrates every Earth Day by releasing limited-edition sunglasses with frames made from 100% recycled materials—and the packaging is 100% sustainable, too!
ABOUT THE ROLE
Ever wonder how a pair of sunglasses gets made… or how a wild idea like pink furry frames becomes actual reality? Maybe you’re curious how in the world a company lets a flamingo named Carl run the place. Well, look no further! goodr is calling all flaminglets — yes, that’s a baby flamingo — for our 2026 Fall Internship Program !
