The company’s saying is “work hard, play hard”, incorporating fun into the work environment, and practicing collaboration and open communication. To do so, the spaces are very open, with few walls enclosing a space, leaving enough room for people to get together and have discussions by just turning around. As an extreme sport sponsor, the company encourages employees to be active and social, with a gym and a large break room with various activities that can be done and enough space to have different events for networking and watching sports competitions.
