• Empathy – An ability to listen, respect, and understand your co-workers, customers, and everyone you interact with no matter how different they are to you.
• Adaptability – An ability to respond quickly. We are in a fast-paced industry and so we expect you to be creative when solving a new problem and comfortable under pressure.
• Transparency – We believe that transparency is critical to empowering everyone to make the best decisions, both the company to its people and vice versa.
• Integrity – Integrity creates trust. As both an organization collectively and as individuals, it is our most valuable asset.
