Key Traits and Behaviors
Taking Ownership: We do whatever is necessary to get the job done - no job is too big or too small. We are willing to do any task at any level - and get our hands dirty (at a meal solutions company, sometimes we all have to do the dishes!). We work with speed, setting realistic but aggressive timelines. We do not allow lack of perfect to get in the way of progress.
Pragmatic, Next-level Thinker: We explore new methodologies and strategies and are not constrained by conventional thinking or ‘the way we have always done it’. We take calculated risks in order to learn and innovate with speed, or ‘test and learn’. We pride ourselves on using data and insights to drive practical decisions in our fast-paced environment.
Humble Team Player: We work collaboratively and effectively with colleagues, always putting company and team needs ahead of personal achievement. We are open to different points of view when weighing a decision, pulling in different people to provide fresh and unique perspectives.
