Nejsme ani startup, ale ani utáhlý korporát. To znamená, že máme nastavené procesy a pravidla, ale zároveň nemusíme kvůli maličkosti vypisovat žádanku a čekat, až to 5 lidí schválí.

I když je to trochu dnes klišé, protože to o sobě tvrdí kdekdo, tak my jsme opravdu dynamická firma se vším všudy. Jsme rychlí, draví, děláme hodně změn a adaptabilita je naše druhé jméno. Nuda zde nehrozí.

Pracujeme tvrdě a jsme určitě výkonově orientovaní. Pokud má někdo chuť a drive se učit a růst, tak je u nás správně. Když budeme cítit, že to dává smysl, můžeš se velmi brzy dostat k věcem, na které by ses v korporátu načekal.
