Our Culture and People
The culture at Wooqer is a beautiful mix of success and happiness because we believe that making people happy is the first step towards making them successful. We want every person to be successful at their job in Wooqer and do it in a way that makes them happy. Wooqer was founded for the very same reason, where we wanted to help enterprises create a culture for their teams where work in their hands is easy and fun to complete. We built a real-time, mobile-first app and DIY platform by writing code with a focus on ease and happiness of the end user. We wrote code that married Deep-tech with Happy-tech.
To ensure that we're always building a happy and successful team, we make sure to start right by hiring right. On Monday you'll see 4 new AEs join the team. I can safely say that we interviewed over 60 people in the past 4 months before we made an offer to them. We bring in people who are passionate about their role, their career and towards Wooqer's mission. We look for a unique spark in every role we hire for. We believe that attitude precedes skill and more often we're drawn towards unconventional talent for critical roles in Wooqer (who have gone on to be the most successful). Once we bring someone onboard, we trust them completely to do their job and to act in the best interest of the company and their team. We trust so much that we don't have a leave policy. Our teams get unlimited paid-time-off without questions. We focus only on staying true to our commitments and delivering our outcomes on time, without making excuses. This is the true definition of Ownership, Wooqer's first and most important value that we live by each day.
Each one of us owns outcomes that directly impact the business. We have a flat hierarchy and delegation without execution goes against our principle of ownership. We also believe that people cannot own their outcomes at Wooqer, unless they own their careers. We want employees to take on larger roles and new responsibilities and make a case for themselves. We don't want anyone to wait for appraisal cycles or their managers to promote them or give them new responsibilities. It's the organization's responsibility to create growth opportunities that we want our people to grab and we will make sure to reward you fairly
We want to foster a people centric culture that prioritizes people's happiness. People include our employees, our customers, our vendors and our investors. We want to create a meaningful impact for each of our people in a way that's respectful and worthy of a stage and mic.
We strongly believe that culture is made at home. Our employees are our culture. The way we treat each other and the way we go an extra mile to help each other out, are building blocks of our culture. When our employees feel happy and cared for at work, it's then that they can create the same experience for our customers. Our leaders at Wooqer focus on building a growth-first and people-first workplace, creating an environment where their teams are motivated to make daily passionate progress towards their goals, go back to loved ones in the evening with a happy day’s job and come back the next day to deliver on the commitments made to our teams.
We work from our office and do so because it enhances collaboration. We don't have unnecessary formalities and don't hold back candid spontaneous thoughts and creative ideas. This also doesn't mean that we don't respect the deep-work-time of our teammates. We avoid unnecessary meetings and only call for them with the right stakeholders, while ensuring that we go prepared ourselves.
We're focussed on making every last person on the team successful. We will continue to preserve and refine Wooqer's culture that we've so carefully crafted with our team of Happy-People. If this is the place you’d like to be, let us know :)
