The culture is very chill. As long as you do 40 hours in a week. As long as you get the work done, no one will judge. There's always something going on, whether its a quiz, webinar, or after work drinks, there's something happening most weeks.

Graduate, Auckland
I feel very supported by my manager and buddy.; I feel comfortable communicating to them about how I am progressing, and also about things outside of work that may affect my performance. I feel very inspired by their enthusiasm and I appreciate everything they have done to make me feel welcome as a new employee. I can not praise them enough. It is the best environment I have ever worked in and it inspires me to work harder every day. Outside of my immediate team, everyone has been welcoming and friendly. I think the business has a positive approach to mental health and supporting their employees (e.g. are you ok day).
