Life at PhoenixDX
We work flexibly
We’re all human and we value the need for working from anywhere as well as flexibility around balancing work-life and home-life. Our teams are based in many countries, making it important to adapt to each other’s needs.
We have each others backs and co-own each others success
Co-elevate with your peers. Trust is stronger than control at PhoenixDX. Autonomy and ownership are part of our core values. With that comes the responsibility of teams co-owning each other’s success, having each other’s backs and creating more than working relationships.
We celebrate diversity
Diversity and inclusion are in our culture from the ground up. We have an ‘United Nations’ approach, where amazing human beings will co-create new experiences. We believe in better outcomes through diversity.
We serve
The common denominator of all high performing teams is that they lift each other up, are committed to each other and exist to serve. We believe your success is determined by how many people you serve and how well you serve them.
We are always getting better
We give book allowances, courses and instil a continuous learning culture. We apply retrospectives and other agile principles, though we hire people with a growth mindset. We have weekly virtual lunches, fortnightly tech learning days, quarterly business meet up and make mentoring and coaching an integral part of our cultural DNA.
We have a 21st century organisational design
Our organizational model allows us to create, dissolve, and remix squads with a minimal disruption to individuals or leaders. This gives us tremendous abilities to address both temporary and long term opportunities for customers. Using agile principles combined with a strong culture first backbone allows us to have high impactful teams.
We seek transformation and exciting digital projects
We know that feeling fulfilled at work is about working on impactful projects and growing whilst doing it. We are fortunate to be able to serve impactful organisations that rely on us to shape new concepts, digital products and work with us to create their future. Examples include ‘Uber eats like’ apps, ‘Facebook like’ apps, video applications, marketplaces or field services applications with mobile first.
