Our Values
- On our team things like integrity, trust, and respect are table stakes. If you’re not a good human, don’t apply.
- We value diversity not for its own sake but because we staunchly believe different experiences and perspectives will make us better. Oh, and we think diverse workplaces are simply more fun and interesting.
- Your pedigree isn’t what will earn you respect around here; your competence and humility will. It doesn’t matter to us whether you’re coming from the School of Hard Knocks or an Ivy League. Also don’t brag about your SAT score. Nobody cares. Check your ego at the door.
- If you don’t have an unabashed belief that you can make the world a better place, then you should go work at Amazon and help ship cat food faster.
- You must enjoy the hustle and grind. Don’t expect rest and vest joy ride.
- Having fun. We want teammates that we are eager to see on Monday morning because they make our lives richer.
- We seek and give feedback, not for agreement or consensus, but to get to the best idea. Groupthink leads to Groupsink.
