    Open communication is crucial for me. It is important for people to express their thoughts openly to ensure a good company culture. What do you want to have in a company to improve culture?

    Transparency and compliance are a must for ALL companies nowadays. Other characteristics depend on the cultural set of the company. I appreciate flexibility.

    Appreciation & giving a chance to speak and express their reviews (even if working on a small level) can play a huge difference in employees' stake and will lead to the company's growth!
    For me, it's transparency, equality, recognition, and respect. And I'm sooo lucky to work at the company with these values.

    For me, a good company culture is the one that makes employees feel valued and appreciated, so that they are encouraged to make meaningful contributions to the organization. When employees feel valued, they will be more loyal to the company and more likely to put in extra efforts.

    Trust and Faith are essential characteristics. Feel free and let me know if you agree or disagree and also why?

    Aligned values across everyone - that means that no one is compromised and everyone feels in step with their team mates. Great for culture and morale!

    The culture must involve everyone in the growth of the company towards its ultimate vision. The CEO cannot sit with every employee and help them make every decision. This is where the culture comes in. The culture must help in putting things into perspective, it must make employees feel something like what the customer feels. For example I am building a new social media platform and I am planning on banning the word user in all company communication it must be replaced by the word customer because it will be a paid app not a free app.

    The ability to have full ownership of your work. When the entire responsibility of one's work, and the expectations are communicated, motivated employees always find a way to crush those targets and make new records.

    For remote-only companies, I think the most critical component of a robust remote culture is trust in each other. Without trust, you cannot manage a remote team. For example, we don’t ask our team members to report their work hours to their managers. We only look for results and responsiveness to internal communication. Some other factors I think of are: - Asynchronous communication with some set of rules. E.g. responding to a Slack message within 24 hours on weekdays. - Self-serve new employee onboarding - Transparent goal-setting and project management for each team You can see more about how we work at the company I work for, CitizenShipper, here: https://www.gethailey.com/interv...
