Put yourself in the customer’s shoes. We care deeply about serving our customers above all else.
No job is too small. Details matter, even if nobody will ever see them.
Every problem is an opportunity. Any solution that is clever, difficult to reproduce, or takes serious guts is an opportunity to widen our moat.
To go far, go together. We trust, respect, win, and lose together, as a team.
Own the problem. Not your solution. Best idea wins.
It doesn’t get easier. We just get faster. There is no finish line. Every day is a step toward compounding success. This is a marathon toward excellence.
