A great deal of your fulfillment at any company is determined by the extent to which the values of the people and the organization align with your own. It's hard to assess culture from the outside and most companies are not good at describing their own nature. (How do fish describe water?) They also have incentives to say things that sound attractive rather than things that are true We've tried to assemble characteristics. This is our best attempt to share an honest description of our culture today. We hope you find it useful in deciding whether Empowerly is the kind of place in which you'd like to spend your time.
