Work Environment
We're all about creating a workplace where every employee feels like a VIP (Very Important Person, no need to Google), valued like a rare Pokémon card, and given the chance to be the workplace wizard of change. A small (but mighty!) team means good ideas don’t get lost in bureaucracy as they climb up the corporate ladder, which, in our case, is probably better described as a corporate step stool.
