Being on a dream team is not right for everyone, and that is OKAY. Many people value job security very highly, and would prefer to work at companies whose orientation is more about stability, seniority, and working around inconsistent employee effectiveness. Our model works best for people who highly value consistent excellence in their colleagues.

As a member of our team, you’re encouraged to consistently ask yourself if you still fit in the team. For new joinees, we have a 3-week incubation period which culminates in a review session where we evaluate the member-team fit. If, after the 3-week period, you feel you don’t align with our values and tenets, you’re free to leave (if all formalities have been taken care of).

You'll fit right in if:

• work is a very important part of your everyday life
• you enjoy detailed discussions on design, product, and tech
• you enjoy solving problems
• you would still do this even if you had $1M in bank account
• you have an innate sense of ownership when it comes to work
• you cheer up at the idea of making sense of complex systems
• you enjoy close collaboration with cross-functional teams and individuals from different backgrounds
• you are as happy to receive and include ideas as you are to share them
• you are good with people and to people - whether it’s your fellow team members, or those who help run SimplePlan behind the scenes. As Kendrick Lamar rightly said, "b**tch, be humble".
• you understand our tenets and values, and feel you are aligned with them

You won't fit right in if:

• you default to wait for instructions rather than figuring things out yourself
• the only time you think, wonder and talk about your area of expertise is at work
• money is the prime motivation for you to work
• you would rather have a easy-but-mediocre work life than a difficult-but-great work life
• you want to work at a larger organisation but use us to gain some experience before that
