We may be building internet, but we are reaching real people. We strive to build relationships and provide customers and communities with refreshingly great experiences. We emphasize our values in all our interactions: Genuinely Caring: Our customers and colleagues are people, and quite possibly our neighbors. We put ourselves in their shoes and give them our full attention. Empowering You: We empower our customers to choose the products that best meet their needs, and we support our employees to implement solutions that elevate the experiences of our customers and coworkers. Innovation and Improvement: We always look for ways to make the experiences of our customers - and each other - better. Earning Your Trust: We earn trust by communicating simply and transparently as real people, not as a corporation.
