Company values
- Diligent Benevolence: We thrive as a unified force, caring deeply for one another, celebrating victories, and growing together. Openness and kindness are our cornerstones, but we steer clear of complacency. We strive for excellence, knowing it demands constant, honest feedback within a supportive environment.
- Humble Hunger: We have big ambitions and aim to be the best at what we do. But we recognize that this is a long and imperfect road. There is no recipe for success. Arrogance and self-conceit will not drive us anywhere. It’s a journey of learning, minus the ego trip
- Responsible Pioneers: Our decisions boldly navigate new frontiers, always aligned with our customer-first compass. We navigate with responsibility, recognizing our resource limits. We're a crew of accountable owners
- Inclusive Community: More than an inner spark, our Purple Fire forges a community where everyone's seen, heard, and valued. It's our diversity – of thought, background, and culture – that fuels this fire, creating an impactful, united, and passionate collective that aims to create and inspire.
