Thanks for the kind words!
The logos highlight companies where our customers (the engineers) work. Since we're early stage, so far it's more common for engineers to discover CodeCrafters, sign up by themselves, and expense it to their company. That might explain why you can't find information about subscription on the intranet.
We also do have cases where we work with companies to land team subscriptions, so if you'd be interested for us to engage with your company, feel free to drop me a note — sarup@codecrafters.io, and I'd love to help. It might be that the person you couldn't locate has moved on from the company, but I don't have a good explanation for why you couldn't find them on LinkedIn :-D If you emailed me, I could ask them and find out for you (for references, etc) — for most listed on the website, I've been in contact with them :)
It seems kind of disingenuous to show companies logos, when it could just be a random employee- let alone using the phrase "trusted by".
oh come on guys. "Trust by" sections are pure marketing bullshit. I wonder who really takes a step back and thinks about whether they are real or not. Welcome to Internet.
Really nothing disingenuous here. “Trusted by top companies with learning budget” is pretty damn clear and accurate. All in the same font, so there’s no “fine print” argument to be had either.
I've also listed out some of the folks with public CodeCrafters profiles from some the highlighted companies here (Cloudflare, Docker, AWS, Stripe, Microsoft, Vercel, Sourcegraph) — randomly selected.
If you look them up, you'd get a sense for their background / role, etc :)

You should remove the company logos. I work at Cloudflare and this seems like false advertisement.
Thanks for clarifying! I got excited that maybe there was a corporate subscription in place.
Of course! Please feel free to drop me an email, I love working with engineers to get their companies team accounts. It's even more fun with colleagues :)
