Our Core Values
Our values are the guiding principles that we follow. They underline the actions and decisions we make together.
They reflect our most basic needs and expectations. Having clear and practiced values impact the company’s communication, effectiveness and sustainability, and is also a great way of cultivating an authentic and trustworthy organizational culture.
We Think Big
We take on the challenge of creating products that will stand out in a sea of millions. We question the status quo, and we transcend the norm. We remain positive and focus on what could go right. We believe the path to exceptional results is filled with uncertainty. Fear is often the most dangerous thing, so we choose to overcome it, dream ambitiously, and take thoughtfully calculated risks, big and small, in order to achieve them.
We Are Fast
We believe being fast is a necessary condition for success in an industry that is built on innovation and new technologies like ours. To achieve speed, we're ready to make the required tradeoffs, choosing to do very few things, and do them well. In the name of speed, we're ready to sacrifice consensus and move on conviction and put efficiency in second place. We celebrate failing fast, learning, and moving on. We understand that most times moving with 70% confidence is better than waiting until we get to 100%.
We Are Candid
We work hard to create an environment that rewards people for saying what they think respectfully. We make it safe for people to bring up unpopular views and we are brave to share our own unpopular views, at all levels in the company. We take the time to build trust, understand the person we are talking to, and how to deliver the truth in each situation. We give each other the benefit of the doubt, we assume good intentions and we have good intentions.
We Are Committed
We believe our journey is worth pursuing. We consider it to be one of the most important things we're doing, and that is why the majority of our time we choose to be intellectually engaged. Wildlife is where we do the best work of our lives. We only work on projects that we care about. We believe our work is a reflection of who we are so we give our best and work hard to overcome obstacles and achieve our full potential.
We Care For Each Other
Work for us is about enabling deep relationships in addition to achieving our goals. We create an environment where people from all ethnicities, genders and backgrounds that share our values can feel safe, achieve their full potential and be happy. We want sustainable high performance. We help and mentor each other. We foster a community where we give energy to each other. We encourage optimism and positive thinking. We work with people that we love, and we enjoy the journey together.
We Innovate With Research
We celebrate intelligent innovation. We're curious and rigorous in our approach. We seek opposing views and work to disconfirm our beliefs; we experiment. Like a researcher, we incorporate all the knowledge that has been created and then add something new. We create things that are better than what existed, not just different. We make it our business to know what great looks like.
