• Getting the job done – You may need to work some evenings and weekends, and responding to customers outside of work hours. If you are passionate about the company and what you are creating, this will not appear as a job but yet a combination of life and work.
• Culture add – We treat each other and all members vital to the community with respect. Humility, selflessness and strong work ethic are requirements.
