GreyNoise Culture
The hallmark of any great company is a palpable and viscous culture. The most important pillars of our culture are:
- Be transparent, honest, and objective. This is what it means to be “clinical”
- Empathize with customers, partners, and each other
- Learn from mistakes and share the knowledge
- The way feedback is delivered to one another matters as much as the feedback itself
- Good work-life balance is the key to sustained productivity
- The measure of a team member’s effectiveness is how well the rest of the team operates in their unexpected absence
- No such thing as a million dollar idea, only million dollar execution
- Out-innovate our previous selves
