Company Core Values

Driven To Win – Competitiveness is in our blood. We fight every day to be better than we were yesterday. This mentality trickles into everything that we do.
Adaptable – Working at an innovative dotcom company has its charms. One of them is problem solving on the spot and quickly shifting to changes in the business. We tackle our obstacles head-on and come out on top.
Metrics-Driven – Data science, big data and predictive analytics are a part of our daily work. If you don't like numbers, you won't like working here. The numbers tell the story and drive the majority of our decisions.
Transparent – This relationship is a two-way street. We share our wins, our challenges, and our visions for what's next with all of our employees. We expect the same from our people.
Innovative – What is the next big thing? We think about that every day. We are not afraid to take the road less travelled as we know that is where we find some of our biggest wins. Everyone has a voice and everyone contributes to our wins.
Collaborative - Here we've got it all: from technology, to online marketing, product, analytics, sales and more. Our team works cross-functionally with a mindset that we are better as one team striving towards the same goal rather than separate entities.
