Additional Culture Details
Based on established company values of Passion, Respect, Trust, Collaboration, Love and Innovation, the company is keenly focused on building and maintaining a great culture. OTA has an extensive recruiting program that identifies exceptional candidates and screens for cultural fit, including interviews with senior executives for most positions.
A “no fear” atmosphere encourages risk taking and innovation, and a spirit of engagement and interaction. Ideas and input are welcome and encouraged at all levels. OTA has many company rituals and resources that inform team members of company history and celebrates achievements, while promoting a great culture.
