Give us an example of how you've experienced Dwellworks culture.
When asked to name one time in which I experienced Dwellworks
culture, I cannot help but think it is an impossible task – not because I have
not experienced any well-defined moment of pure immersion in the Dwellworks
culture, but because every moment has been a part of a continuation of that
culture. It is an aura, an ambience; it is always present; it is in the air.
+ My leader, Suzy, audible
over the cubicle wall, articulating laughter at her frustrations rather than profanity.
+ Dozens of surprise bagels
delicately placed on the café table.
+ The inhabitants of an
entire office gathering to celebrate one department’s accomplishments.
+ A companion eager to
support a new culinary experience.
+ A smile and a “hello”
from everyone who passes by.
+ Communal gathering to
enjoy a break from the work and a treat.
Throughout my eight weeks here at Dwellworks, I have
experienced the above scenarios – and many more – an innumerable amount of
times. The busy bees of the Dwellworks
hive have proven to me that they are every bit as social, considerate, and
compassionate as they are hard working.
It all goes back to my first impression.
When I arrived at the Dwellworks headquarters on my first
day, I was terribly early. I was let into the building by one of the few people
present before 8 am on a Monday. He, Max, gave me a tour of the building as if
it was no inconvenience to him. He was, essentially, my first face-to-face
contact with Dwellworks. He made me feel welcome – a feeling that has only been
magnified in the time since my first day here.
