Guideline was founded in 2015 by CEO Kevin Busque, when he noticed that young employees weren’t participating in his company’s 401(k) due to dated systems and high fees. A modern, easy to use, and affordable provider didn’t exist, so Kevin and the founders built Guideline with the mission of helping everyone arrive at a secure retirement.  We’re now one of the fastest growing retirement companies (5th largest in the US), with more than 350 employees, 50,000+ businesses, and $15B+ invested on our platform. As we continue to expand, we’re looking for driven individuals to join our growing team.
