A trusting Company

To be able to work as I do, and as other people working for the Company do, the Company need to trust us.

Trust is an important characteristics of the Company. Nobody is going to spy on us to know exactly what we are doing each day.

We don't even have to write monthly activity reports. For those of us in North America, we only have a one hour weekly telephone conference that lasts a maximum of one hour, where each participant explains what he has done for the last week and what he is going to do in the future.

And it is OK if you cannot participate to the weekly conference. You should simply explain why you cannot participate and give your personal report by e-mail.

Such a system of trust works for two reasons:
  1. We are a small company and most people know everybody else, with the exception of the last recruits.
  2. The Company only recruits people that it knows will fit well and that can be trusted.
