Frequently Asked Questions
Our culture runs on five core values: Treat Your Team Like Family, Make an Impact & Drive Results, Be Empathetic to Our Customers, Strive for Continuous Improvement & Learning, and Cultivate Quality Conversations. We hear from our own people that it feels "almost familial" — we show up for each other's milestones, and we've heard directly from employees that "most of management genuinely cares about their employees and growth."
That shows up in the small stuff too: we're a dog-friendly office, we do a weekly happy hour, and we get out together for things like Dodger games and offsite trainings. On Glassdoor, our people rate Culture & Values highest of any category — 4.7 out of 5.
We collaborate on two rhythms. Day-to-day, we run a fixed hybrid schedule — everyone's in the office together on the same set days each week, and we use that time intentionally for collaborative meetings and touch bases rather than leaving it to chance.
Then once a quarter, we pause as a company for a full week — we review what shipped, calibrate on challenges across departments, and plan our priorities for the next quarter together. It's a deliberate reset we build into the calendar, not something we do ad hoc.
We recognize work on a few levels. Every month we name an All-Star of the Month, and once a year our own employees vote on an MVP of the Year among their peers. Day-to-day, we give public kudos through Lattice and mirror them into Slack so recognition is visible across the company, not just between a manager and their report. We also call out wins directly in team meetings and in our weekly Monday all-hands
