An exciting perk we offer is our Thumbtack Bucks benefit — where employees get reimbursed for hiring pros on Thumbtack. Dusti Gregory Ondryas (she/her), Sr. Product Marketing Manager, received extra Thumbtack bucks for winning the 2023 Voice of the Pro Values Award. Check out how Dusti maximized garage storage with her TT bucks: “I had a Thumbtack pro install overhead storage in my garage — it had been a dream of mine for 2 years. Now all of our camping gear, paddle boards and coolers will be in our garage instead of in our basement. And the bonus is that it’s all overhead and won’t take up any space in our small, 2-car garage.” #HappyAtThumbtack #EmployeeStories #BenefitsAndPerks
