A team of hard-working, enthusiastic people excited about transforming the industry.
Overall this has been one of the better places to work that I've been at. It's much better than a huge impersonal firm where you are just a cog in a machine, but it's also more professional than a small shop of 10 or less people where personal relationships can distract from getting business done.
