📣 Mission & Purpose
Do it Now Now has an amazing mission is very purpose driven. Very rarely do you find organisation being openly accountable to their mission and purpose. DiNN always finds avenues to ensure they are not mission adrift and ensure whatever project they embark on is truly reflective of what they have set out to do or at least, offers a stepping stone into accomplishing their mission goals.
🏖 Flexibility
They offer great flexibility as they are people centric. The ability to centre the individual employees and their needs is truly remarkable. In most companies, you are just another number in their statistics reports and baselines but not DiNN. The flexibility provides the freedom (within reason) to operate best in the way that makes me more efficient.
😎 Autonomy
Autonomy is highly encouraged here which works best for people like me, to be to apply creative freedom in getting the task done in a way that best suits me.

📣 Mission & Purpose
The amazing work DiNN do is what drew me to them and they completely live up to everything you read about them. It is so rewarding being part of such an inspiring and progressive organisation. Waking up every day knowing my work will contribute to society in a positive way is a game-changer for me.
👩👧👧 Team members
The team at DiNN are incredible. They were so welcoming when I joined and, as cheesy as it sounds, I genuinely feel like I'm part of a family. Its such a great mix of people and I've learned so much from them since I started just over a month ago.
🤩 Flat hierarchy
In previous jobs I've always felt like the classic small cog in a big wheel - I've been told what to do and how to do it with little wiggle room. Working at DiNN is a completely different experience. All ideas are welcomed and valued and you feel empowered to contribute to the organisation's mission as an individual.
Overall
Its so hard to describe what its like working at DiNN with words - you have to actually do it to understand it! I've always wanted to work somewhere that makes the world a better place and I've always wanted a job where I am trusted, valued and pushed to be a better version of myself. Working at DiNN gives me all of these things and so much more. I cannot recommend them highly enough as an employer.
