🌟 MEET THE GURUS 🌟 Say hello to Harrison Makofsky, Product Operations Manager! 🚙 Harrison’s role is to boost efficiency across the business. By actively gathering feedback from internal teams and customers, he helps engineers focus on high-impact work while ensuring customer-facing teams are equipped with the right tools at the right time ❤️ Harrison has spent his 8+ years at CG connecting with Gurus in his daily work and through communities like our Running Club and Scotch Club. In 2023, he co-founded AccessAbility@CarGurus to help further cultivate a culture that celebrates and harnesses the strengths of all individuals—including those with neurological differences and disabilities 🐈 Harrison and his wife are the proud pet parents of two cats and a dog — all with disabilities. After their Instagram account @MeetMayaCat went viral, they were inspired to launch AllWorthy, Inc., a non-profit teaching kids (and their grown-ups!) how to get comfortable with disability to build a more inclusive future #GreatToBeAGuru #MeetTheGurus

🌟 MEET THE CG COMMUNITY 🌟 Introducing CarGurus' Women in Tech (WiT) community, part of our Women@CarGurus Employee Resource Group (ERG)! ❤️ WiT connects members of our Engineering and Product orgs for skill-building, advocacy, and professional development. Group Product Manager Krislyn Hardiman and Software Development Engineering Manager Emily Sager-Rabideau lead this community 🚀 WiT has a dynamic focus; it continuously evolves to reflect its members' shared interests and evolving needs. Recent events like a Women in Data panel and a workshop on navigating difficult conversations invite Gurus to exchange stories, recommend resources, and problem-solve in real time 🎉 The group actively engages with communities outside of CG.

📌 DID YOU KNOW? Gurus get a 4-week paid sabbatical after 5 years with CG, and another after 10. VP of Growth Eric Richmond (he/him) made the most of his by taking the family trip of a lifetime. Even better: He could fully disconnect knowing his colleagues had his back. We’re proud to be a workplace that’s about way more than work 🐢 🚗 🚙 #GreatToBeAGuru

We’re inspired by the fresh perspective that new Gurus bring to our work, and the energy they infuse in our culture. So we strive to ensure they feel welcomed and supported from day one. Thank you Patrick Sarsgard for confirming we understood the assignment ✅ . We can’t wait to see what you and other recent joiners do next! 🚀 🚗 🚙 #GreatToBeAGuru
