## Our Culture
We think deeply about what makes startups win out in the long run. Here's how we think about building a winning culture:
### We Value Speed
Speed is a defining characteristic of almost every industry leading company you look at.
We believe that speed can be trained into a habit and built into the company culture.
### We Value Development
We invest in the growth of our team. This is not just for skills, but in how to think, build systems, and develop the right habits to become effective leaders in our organization.
If you read a lot of books to learn as much as possible, you will do very well at T1. You will do even better if you are a strong writer.
### We Value Systems
Effective systems help us move from linear growth to superlinear and exponential growth.
A good description of our culture is **high energy, pace, and output**. We're excited and driven to continually build, improve, and produce.
## Our Benefits
At work, we actively pursue career development from the bottom up to train everyone to be successful.
And at home, we have generous leave policy, and provide medical and insurance benefits to make sure body and mind are adequately cared for.
Benefits includes:
- Our Unlimited Leave Policy
- Our Progressive and Active Management
- Career & Learning Development
