Culture Playbook
For years, our client base expanded by word-of-mouth, as we became known for solving the unsolvable, on-time, on-budget, at speed, and at a highly competitive price point. It's an approach that's brought some of the best names in the business to our team, as The Plant grows internationally working with some of the biggest names in food, fashion, news, and retail. The secrets of our success, if there are secrets, are first to hire, develop, and retain the best talent in the industry. We have done this by creating a company culture in which we have the expectation of excellence while maintaining a high degree of freedom in a friendly, supportive, and collaborative environment. Second, we have a high degree of personal ownership and responsibility in the company. This is true in technology, in which our engineers proudly and passionately develop our core technology stack so that we have full control and flexibility of our systems. It is also true in the other areas of the company that supports our clients, company, products, and services. This translates into a team that is incredibly vested in the solutions and technology that we bring to our clients.

1. People
At The Plant, we invest in people. Because we believe people are our greatest value. We act in the best interest of our community, and aim to provide a healthy, safe, fair, and positive environment, where opportunities are provided for all to grow, succeed, and be happy.
2. Leadership
A leadership mindset is required for all. We believe in the power to not only lead others, but to lead oneself and work with an entrepreneur mindset. We believe that people can reach their greatest potential when they are proactive and efficiently approach their work.
3. Artisans
The craftsmanship and spirit of the Japanese Sho-Ku-Nin (artisans) is engraved in our hearts. Our products are developed with love by “craftspeople” who have honed their skills over the years with knowledge and passion.
4. Nurture
We are not just a software vendor, but a partner that truly cares about our client’s business. It is our job to not only deliver the product, but also provide ongoing support that drives growth. We believe that our client’s growth is our growth. And thus the success of our employees is our driving force.
5. Trust
Transparency and integrity fosters trust within the organization. It strengthens mutual bonds and creates a team with boundaries. It leads to a better understanding of values, creates creativity, and enhances job performance. Ultimately, the trust of employees is a force for the company to thrive on.
