🤩 Flat hierarchy
Feedback really matters and we're all in this together learning as we go. Everyone has a voice and all opinions count
👩👧👧 Team members
Everyone believes in the mission and we need to work together to achieve it. We're very selective in how we recruit and everyone universally comments on how welcome they are
😎 Autonomy
Covid has meant we spend alot of time working remotely. We wont be successful unless everyone has universal trust. Everyone feels empowered to solve problems themselves!
