Workplace Culture

Workplace Culture 🎉

  • Hybrid

    1. Collaborative: We understand that our best work – as individuals and as a company – comes from pooling our collective talents and strengths.

    2. Supportive: We know our managers and coworkers care about us professionally and personally, and that our leaders truly have everyone’s best interests at heart.

    3. Driven: we’re in this together to win. We work hard and celebrate every triumph (big or tiny), cheering each other on to do great things.

  • Our leaders are responsible for creating the system of values that represent the culture we want to create. They also have to embody those values in how they lead, make decisions, and show up every day. They’re human beings; they’re not perfect. But they absolutely bring consistency, accountability, and authenticity in shaping our culture on a daily basis. When anyone in the organization acts in a way that isn’t aligned with our culture, it gets surfaced and discussed, not buried. Our leaders have intentionally cultivated an environment of open communication — we call it fearless feedback.

    They believe that innovation requires a great culture and a safe environment where people can speak up and debate openly. We think it's telling that in the employee survey that just won us an Inc. Best Workplaces award, 100% of our team members agreed with this statement: The senior leaders of the organization value people as their most important resource.

  • Recognizing each other’s achievements is baked into our culture. We’re constantly sharing each other’s small wins, with near-daily shout-outs in the all-hands Slack channel. Notably, we don’t just share wins within our departments. Teammates and team leaders tend to highlight people’s accomplishments in ways that the entire organization can understand and appreciate. We also have an annual awards ceremony, where we recognize people across different departments for their achievements throughout the year. The awards have included Rookie of the Year, Impact Award, All Stars (for multiple people), and MVP.
