Thistle

We’re not just another meal delivery service.

Our mission is to make it easy for everyone to get and stay healthy while improving the sustainability of our food system.

Our focus is on the health and happiness of our customers, and we are revolutionizing how fresh, nutritious, high-quality food is purchased, manufactured, and delivered at scale.

Our bottom line is not only measured by profits, but our impact on people and the planet. Thistlers proudly contribute to this mission every day.

Our Purpose

Current Openings

We take care of our own.

First Fridays

Take the first Friday of every month off! This amounts to more than 2 weeks of enforced time off per year.

Unlimited vacation

Our flexible time off policy lets you reset and recharge as needed – we trust your judgement.

Comprehensive health plans

Medical, dental, vision, life insurance plans and more.

We’re committed to investing in our employee experience. These are just the beginning.

From the beginning to today, we’ve delivered 5.5 million meals, built a team of over 500 members, and served the entire West Coast. We’re currently in a high-growth phase, gearing up to expand our services to the East Coast. Joining our team means you’ll make a positive impact with a talented team.

Thistle is a Series B startup founded in 2013.

(Actual) Work/life balance

Our leadership and culture supports a healthy work/life balance – we know you have a life outside of work. In addition to our flexible schedules, First Fridays, and unlimited vacation, we don’t expect anyone to be responding to Slack messages outside of 9–5 on weekdays.

While we started in the San Francisco Bay Area, Thistlers now call a number of states and metro areas home.  We are also open to visa sponsorships.

We empower our distributed team 
to do their best work.
