“My internship at Square was great. I learned from world-class Engineers and was given a ton of ownership over meaningful projects. As a full time Engineer, I joined the same team I interned on, and have continued to build Machine Learning driven features that empower businesses.”

What People Are Saying About Square

  • Internal Mobility: Company materials describe promote‑from‑within practices, cross‑brand moves (Square, Cash App, Afterpay), and programs like the Builder Fellowship that can convert to full‑time roles. These signals point to real pathways for moving across teams and advancing internally.
  • Career Path Clarity: Public engineering growth frameworks, panel‑based promotions, and bias‑checked promotion packets give clear expectations by level and a formal process for advancement. Proxy and policy language around promotion and compensation fairness further reinforce the structure.
  • Mentorship & Sponsorship: Sponsorship via ELEVATE is positioned to accelerate promotion readiness, and fellowship programs include mentorship on product teams. First‑time manager programs and internal communities add additional support for guided development.
