WHY WE'RE A BEST PLACE TO WORK

The CloudGenix culture has three key elements: 1. Do the right thing by the customer in every case, irrespective of any near-term adverse impact. 2. Bring excellence every single day--excellence doesn't take days off. 3. Winning as a team is always better than losing by yourself. We do not reward outcomes but cultural behaviors that we value. We measure behaviors such as activity, customer touches, and enabling fellow team members, and reward those behaviors.

We have a fundamentally different culture that unlocks the limits of geographic hiring. Our diverse staff promotes an extremely accepting culture, and our employees are in varying stages of life. Most employees work remotely, and we encourage flexibility and balance with scheduling — parents can be parents, people can go to the doctor, and families can take vacations. We work to ensure team building and familiarity within the company, and our entire staff is invited to meet regularly both virtually and in person at our annual get-together. We encourage career advancement and invest in our team to learn and expand their skills.

Coda puts culture first by 1) prioritizing people, and by 2) prioritizing what's right, even if it's unfamiliar. We host company gatherings, but, most important, we have flexible resources available to all our employees. We encourage multi-disciplinary collaboration throughout our firm. Day-to-day meetings at the firm are very inclusive, while everyone involved with the project is present at our companywide annual retreat. We offer flexible work hours, remote working, excellent compensation, and benefits.

At Code 42, every employee receives stock options as part of their compensation package — making every employee an owner. Last year, we initiated a virtual onboarding process and created a fully remote in-house leadership program. We now also have all-hands meetings, as well as a dedicated Slack channel through which employees can ask questions of our CEO. We’ve demonstrated a commitment to DEI through concrete goals for a more equitable organization, the formation of a BIPOC employees affinity group and an internal initiative to raise awareness about all types of disabilities — visible and invisible.
