• 🌈 Come as you are – we are an inclusive company. When you work with us, rest assured you're working in a safe environment.
• ❌ Zero burnout – too often technology teams are worked too hard or stretched too thin. We have seen it happen, and we never want to be a company that pushes our staff to breaking point.
• 🌱 Greta Goal – we only have one planet, let’s look after it.
• 📚 We all level up together – we have each seen the benefit that being part of a developer community can have, it is transformational. We invest in our communities, you will find us organising meetups, conferences, and events. When we are not organising, we are helping, speaking, mentoring, or sponsoring.
• 💡Transparency – We are big believers that there are no secrets in Advancing Analytics, and we try to live this day to day.
