No one ever built anything great on a “meh.” We work with outsized passion to fulfill our mission.</li> <li>Be Humble. You don’t have all the answers. Luckily, you don’t have to. Don’t worry about being right. Be humble instead.</li> <li>Stay Curious. Curiosity is a springboard to the future. It can transform the wisp of an idea into a breakthrough. We ask “what if.” We work with wonder. It’s how we innovate.</li> <li>Lead with Solutions. Question everything. But offer solutions as you do. Raise issues. But propose a few answers. For every hole you poke, offer a way to patch it up.</li> <li>Own the Result. We have no time for blame or shame. When you stumble, own it, learn from it + get back to business.</li> <li>Do More. Do more than your job description. Take initiative. Take charge. No job is beneath you, and no job is too big. Be a leader and do more — do whatever it takes.</li> </ul> Be Inclusive, Always Research shows that women and other marginalized groups tend to apply to roles only when they check every point on a job description.
