One of the few jobs I've ever had where I haven't been tempted to see what other job opportunities are available after a year or two. It's for people that want to do their best work under reasonable expectations for each individual and high aspirations for the company as a whole.

The people I work with and the challenges we solve together.

The vacation time allows me to fully enjoy my life outside of work and maintain strong relationships with family and friends.

Everyone cares about one another. I truly look forward to the times when I get to see my co-workers in person.

There is an opportunity for me to learn from everyone I work with; everyone is highly intelligent and motivated to do great work.

The paid time off is both generous, encouraged, and above industry average. It hammers home that work-life balance is something that leadership is actually concerned with.

Everyone is expected to do their best work, and the company understands that facilitating that requires good work/life balance. The vacation policy is fantastic both on paper and in practice.

They are fellow teammates, rather than overseers. They provide transparency and are directly and actively involved in the work of their respective departments. I trust and value them as co-workers, leaders, and humans.

My team's dedication to excellence. There are thorough discussions about the quality of work being released that ensures we're all working at our best ability and creating a product that is stable and tested.

Being trusted to not only do the work, but being trusted as a human being that might have needs outside of work. When a family emergency was looming, it was a no-questions-asked immediate response to take any time I needed.

There are no mean-spirited inter-departmental rivalries or competitions. It really feels like we're on the same team working toward the same goals. It's also easy to find an expert in something, so the ability to continue learning and grow yourself is always present.

They are both actively involved in the company and transparent. It never feels as though they're sitting around watching as the rest of the company does the heavy lifting, and important, relevant statistics and strategies are shared to create a shared sense of purpose.

They are intelligent, capable, and hard-working team players. I don't work with a single person that I wouldn't feel comfortable asking for help, and I am always happy to return the favor whenever I might be able to be of assistance to someone else.

Employees are treated with respect and empathy, and as adults with a vested interest in the company's future. This is exhibited best by full transparency and the opportunity to provide meaningful feedback on any topic, and spontaneous holidays or events when needed during tough times.
