About this episode

In today’s episode, we chat with all three of the Gusto founders: Josh Reeves, Eddie Kim, and Tomer London. Gusto is a payroll and employee benefits company that YC funded in 2012. The striking thing about Josh, Eddie, and Tomer is their level of commitment: to their customers, their employees, and one another. It's rare to see a startup with 3 founders still being run by all 3 founders 12 years in, but these guys are special.
