We believe:

She is the reason we exist: We have created a genuine connection with her. She feels seen and heard. She is an integral part of every decision we make. We are her.
Work/Life Balance is an imperative: We value both work and family and bring our best selves to each by ensuring balance.
Team Work Makes the Dream Work: We share ideas, feedback, struggles, wins and frustrations. We care for each other professionally and personally.
Success is Sequential; Not Simultaneous: We focus on one thing at a time.

How we act:
We have a BIAS FOR ACTION: We move quickly. We take smart risks. We solve puzzles. We make things happen.
We HOLD OURSELVES ACCOUNTABLE: We all own the business. We clearly communicate key metrics and standards and review them regularly. We analyze results to understand why we made a decision. We are disciplined.
We LEAD, NOT FOLLOW: We are innovative. We are curious and resourceful. We are driven and competitive (but not with each other).
We communicate GENUINELY & TRANSPARENTLY: With each other and with her. We are present.
We are ALWAYS LEARNING: We improve ourselves and continually look for ways to enhance the skills and abilities of our entire team.

We Hire the Best, Regardless of Their Location. 
We are a natively remote company with team members located all over the world. The flexibility that comes with remote work is a tenant of our culture and our team members hold themselves to high standards to ensure the remote/flexible workplace works for the entire team. We’re looking for people who can demonstrate they hold themselves to a higher standard in everything they do because with great flexibility comes great responsibility.

All this flexibility doesn’t mean we’re not a close-knit team…

We Hire Characters Not Positions:
We’re a small company with big aspirations, and we work hard (and have a LOT of fun) while making that happen. If you have what it takes as an individual – in other words, if you’re a consistent high-achiever in everything you do in life – then you’ll fit in well at our company.
