• Internal Instant Communication

  Even though we have everyone together in the same office, and most communication happens face-to-face, we use Campfire as a way to share information with everyone without interrupting each other. This also helps if someone who's been away catch up with what happened in their absence.

• Perpetual Learning Environment

  We regularly attend conferences to expose ourselves to new ideas and technologies and meet new people. We also have a shared book library which anyone can order books for, as well as PeepCode Unlimited subscriptions. Another important part is bringing in freelancers to pair program with us. Working with new people every now and then is a great way for us to evolve and not become "set in our ways".
