We work with new team members to find that balance with them while building the trust and collaboration that our team values.

We believe that sharing the same physical space with our colleagues creates a level of trust and understanding that fosters innovation and a sense of purpose.

The socializing and relationships formed from these in-person interactions have created the bonds that make our team successful.

We not only want to encourage people to safely spend time in the office, but also, schedule regular travel between our offices in Europe and the US – and a regular conference where the entire worldwide team is gathered together. Maybe the metaverse will replace the office some day – but it hasn't yet Online meetings were a powerful connector during the pandemic – but they don't foster the same connection.
