WHAT WE BELIEVE IN
Who We Are
Talk about what type of people you guys are. How would you describe your company as a whole? Are you a team of innovators, curious thinkers, generalists?
Code of Conduct
Is there a rule of thumb when it comes to treating others in the workplace? Is there a phrase that the company lives by? For example, the classroom motto: treat others the way you want to be treated.
Our Future
Talk about where the company wants to be today and tomorrow. Think about the major goals that your company is determined to reach and what type of impact it is looking to make.
"What's your motto? Your philosophy roots your purpose! Let's hear it!"
WHAT WE BELIEVE IN
Solidarity
Solidarity is key. No one is just a developer or a designer. Your title is just a formality. Above all, we're a team.
Honesty
Honesty is key at our company, however excellence is never reached without some criticism. Take it. Use it. Give it.
Curiosity
We are all students, and we are all teachers. Chances are, the person sitting next to you knows a keyboard shortcut that can change your life.
Ambition
We strive to be great. And details are everything. Every pixel, every line of code, and every tagline has to be perfect.
WHAT WE DO
How we do things
What is the general process in which your company gets work done? Does it involve daily scrum meetings? Or do you have systematic rounds of discussions and iterations?
Our Workflow
What does a project timeline generally look like? From beginning to end, how do you describe the process? Are there clear hand-offs from one team to another. Is there an approval process?
Productivity Software
Most companies have software for email, messaging, project management, etc. Do you use Slack, Trello, HootSuite, Medium, Adobe CC? What platforms are used?
Technology
This is very similar to productivity software, but here you would include physical tools such as computers, printers, scanners, servers, etc available in the office for use.
WHAT WE DO
Communications
Are there important software that you guys use integrally for everyday communication? How does each member stay on top of every update from every department?
Policies
Here, you can talk about general policies your company upholds. What is your company's stance on workplace attire? Is it a pet-friendly place? Are there mandatory coffee breaks?
HOW WE LIVE
Benefits
What are the perks of working for your company? Tell your employees about amenities available to them on a regular basis, whether it's coffee or gym membership.
Special Events
Are there special events that the company does together? Happy hours? Retreats? Nights playing bingo? Tell your employees about why they should be excited for the next holiday party!
Time Off
Of course, there are several cases where an employee must take leave. It could be medically or personally related. It's up to you to decide which to specify on. Consider vacation, sick days, general paid time off, and work from home protocols.
