“Our values and culture make us feel like a united company”
We value our GEIST values very highly.
They ensure that we take care of one another and offer help when needed. At Contrast, employees are listened to, and we have significant influence over how the culture, workflows, and more are structured and function.
Management shows great trust in the idea that everyone has something valuable to contribute. Whether big or small, everyone is heard and considered. This strongly contributes to a sense of unity across the company.
We’re good at “visiting each other’s islands”—in other words, taking the time to understand how things look from our colleagues’ perspectives. This helps us better understand what’s needed to solve a task in the best possible way.
We do our best to make everything come together seamlessly. We’ve learned how important it is to view things from different perspectives in order to better understand the whole picture—and to recognize the personality profiles each of us operates from.
