Additional Culture Details
The culture at DMTB is one of the main reasons for our success over the past few years. When plans were made to grow and bring in people with various backgrounds and experience, we understood that a healthy and productive workplace was very important. Every year we review the company values with the entire company. We take a vote to make sure everyone is on board with these values and they are only ratified if the vote passes unanimously. We use the term 100/0 frequently in office communication and group meetings. 100/0 stands for 100% effort with 0 excuses. Our team has adopted this as their credo and the results have been a great thing for our employees and business.
