It is surprising what one comes across after a period of random surfing, but this one was pretty amazing to me. I ended up there from reading about Amazon’s takeover of Zappos, but the Zappos culture is surely one of the reasons why they are so successful http://bit.ly/T0pWt gives you more information, but in a nutshell Zappos gives people the option to walk away early with a $1000 bonus! Sounds crazy? As they say though, it does mean that you know everyone who stays is a committed employee!
At Morello Digital don’t go quite that far, but we do have relatively relaxed working practices with people working from home, coming in a bit later or other such things. I think a relaxed environment makes for a more productive environment – no doubt they will all be in here soon asking for tomorrow off! It also helps the environment of course so a good thing all round really.
