Our team culture is crucial to us; that's why we take time daily to exchange ideas and discuss our work priorities. We support each other when facing challenges and foster a strong team spirit. We aim to learn and grow continuously from one another. We value diversity, and although we're not perfect, we regularly engage in open discussions about how we can improve in this area.

Our current hybrid work approach focuses on adapting to different needs, including increased flexibility that works best for teams and individuals, with as much autonomy as possible. We also meet up in person regularly, such as twice a year at our offsite or during team dinners.
