Additional Culture Details
Everyday, we reinforce and embrace our mission to change the future of work through augmented reality (AR) software solutions. It is not only that mission, but also seeing the real-world impact of our solutions, that inspires our employees. Every employee, regardless of rank or role, feels like they are a part of our customers’ success -- whether that customer is making aircraft engines with greater precision, or maintaining the machinery that helps make our favorite soda brand.
Although we all work hard, management truly takes the time to focus on our people and our culture. We pride ourselves on being professional and dedicated, but we don’t take ourselves too seriously -- it’s all about striking a balance. Because this mindset fosters trust and independence within our company, our team and the work we do is much stronger. All team members have a say, and everyone’s ideas matter and are critical to our success.
Management also makes problem-solving a company-wide initiative; we like to think of our organization as “flat,” ensuring staff doesn’t feel like they are just out to satisfy an arbitrary hierarchy.
As a result of our flexible environment and management’s focus on culture, employees feel empowered. They do not hesitate to speak out and address any concerns or to commend each other’s success. We recently began recognizing individual milestones and anniversaries, and it is inspiring to see how much everyone celebrates one another. There is no jealousy or competition, and that sense of teamwork makes us successful.
Furthermore, management believes that the adage, “My door is always open,” is not enough to encourage transparency. Therefore, the executive team regularly schedules face-to-face meetings to give employees the opportunity to bring up topics or questions they otherwise may have deemed unimportant. It is a combination of management’s commitment to teamwork, trust, creativity, openness and flexibility that has brought us to where we are today.
