Our Culture
We are a community built on transparency, learning, and excellence. Our culture is our secret weapon.
Our Constants (CTL+BE)
Our five constants are the variables that never change. They define who we are today and help us make decisions about our future.
Community (C)
Our flat leadership structure empowers our self-managed teams to succeed. We expect a lot from each other but give more in return. The power of playfulness helps us form a strong bond to fulfill a very serious commitment: To do everything in our power to never let each other down.
Transparency (T)
We expect adult behavior and reject office politics. Our ecosystem of honesty exists between ourselves, our clients, and in self-reflection. Your input isn’t just encouraged, it’s required. No matter our growth, we’re committed to doing the right thing.
Learning (L)
Difficult problems energize us, fueling our growth as we search for answers. We’re all teachers and students in the same day. When we see a solution, but it is outside of our comfort zone, we default to saying yes
Building (B)
We’re natural born builders who are agnostic about technology— as long as the result is awesome. We are not order takers, but we are approachable listeners. Our solutions have elegant exteriors, and the code is just as beautiful under the hood.
Excellence (E)
From our process to our people, greatness is sought everywhere. Even after our best work, we reflect on how to improve. Like code, our relationships are constantly iterating: We continuously look for ways not just to do better work, but to work better together.
At RTS Labs, you will find a hard-working but casual workplace with no crap, few meetings, and a get-it-done philosophy.
There are no closed doors and no scheduled office hours. Instead, we are a self-managed and self-motivated team of people who always look for new ways to improve our efficiency. We work hard for our clients and for ourselves, and that means we expect a lot from our employees.
When We Aren’t Buried in Our Work, We:
We work as a team, so we play as a team too
Although we work hard to bring custom solutions to the clients we serve, it isn’t always work at RTS Labs. We believe that a team that works hard together should play together as well.
