Values

 

We are committed to doing well while doing good

Hiring is one of the most important things we do. 

We hire team members that inspire us with their competency and character. We know that recruiting is a full-time commitment, and we seek to build a team that is diverse, talented, and driven by high integrity and commitment. 

We pursue impact over ease. We do not take shortcuts in what we are creating to meet financial goals, because we know that our success is based on building for the long-term. We seek to measure our success by our impact on every employee and product we build. We take care of our team and our customers. 

 

(DEI) is a core tenant

 
 
 

Integrity + Trust

 
 

Fun + Joy

 

At Baw Bab, diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) is not an afterthought. Build DEI into our DNA and how we do business, and we are willing to take necessary steps to ensure we meet our commitments.

Here are some key commitments we are starting with, and we will continue to build from here: 

  • Everyone who does the same work is paid equally

  • Our executive and leadership team will remain diverse 

 

Integrity is critical to how we work. We believe that integrity means we do the right thing even when no one is looking.

We are committed to operating with the highest integrity with our partners, colleagues, and clients by honoring our commitments, holding ourselves accountable, challenging the status quo, and going above and beyond. If it must be done in secret, it does not meet the bar for integrity. 

 

Joy is critical. As a team, we enjoy each step of the journey and all the benefits of success to what we are building. We know that joy is a critical component of what it means to be human, and we bring that into all aspects of our work. We are optimistic about the future, and we have realistic expectations. 

Community + Societal Impact

We pursue impact over ease. We do not take shortcuts in what we are creating to meet financial goals, because we know that our success is based on building for the long-term. We seek to measure our success by our impact on every employee and product we build. We take care of our team and our customers. 

We seek to achieve the impossible.

Transformation is central to what it means to build something remarkable. We seek to build transformational products, systems, and communities for good. We do not accept the status quo in any area of the business including the diversity of our team, building life changing products, or creating community across the world. 

Collaborations + Services

 

Transparency is key. 

We provide transparency in our work with each other and with our partners. We take ownership of our mistakes; we learn from them, and we move forward. 

 

We are bold. 

 

We have backbone and ensure that our decisions benefit the customer and the company. We speak up when we disagree and provide potential solutions for how we might adjust as we move forward. Once a decision is made, we work together to deliver stellar results.
