Our managers are coaches who are generous with time, encouragement, and feedback. It's better to fail and learn than to strive for perfection. We provide great flexibility, judging performance by results rather than work hours. We aspire to make diversity more than just a mandate, and our biweekly "family meeting" brings employees together to celebrate accomplishments, promotions, and new hires as a team. From our generous benefits to our well-being guides, paid mental health days, and monthly themes and challenges, we ensure employees prioritize their well-being.

We could not deliver the volume and quality of work that we do without an amazing culture. We have an open culture where people are comfortable asking for different work hours, role transitions, and new challenges. During the pandemic, classroom training was deeply affected, and much of our business was postponed or canceled. As we became a virtual organization, we stepped up to maintain our culture with new activities. We held reflections and asked everyone to focus not on the missed objectives but on the list of new skills and experiences they helped to create in 2020.

Our culture and employees are our greatest competitive advantages. We hire top performers who exhibit a mix of values, leadership, complex professional skills, knowledge, and experience. Our robust employee development programs keeps our high-achieving employees continually challenged and offers opportunities for advancement. Our diligent fiscal management has allowed us to distribute company performance bonuses to every employee for more than 10 years.

Our strong company culture begins with senior leadership, which fosters open communication across all levels of the company, and turns employee feedback into action. Summer Fridays and four-day work weeks were instituted in response to employee needs. Our executives treat every employee as a family member and are available for feedback, ideas, or collaboration at all times. Two book clubs encourage continual learning. Our diversity and equity taskforce pushes us forward on important social issues. What we end up with is an environment in which everyone feels valued, included, and empowered.

IntelliGenesis partners with multiple groups to provide guidance and advice on what employees should expect during their transition to civilian life. We've built a rapport with several military-focused organizations, leading to continued participation in hiring events, employment readiness workshops and company-hosted transition assistance seminars. We also participate in the DOD Skill Bridge program, bringing military interns into our office for up to six months, where they're provided on-the-job training, mentorship, and assistance with their resume and interviewing techniques.
