Every member of the team is given the ability to explore other areas of interest and to push the limits of how things are ""normally done."" Though growing quickly, management has instilled great values in every level of the company and ensured we're still limber and able to pivot if and when necessary. They're super transparent in how we're doing and why certain decisions are made, which helps everyone feel involved and a part of the team and its success."
