The Way of the Penguin

In all we do as Penguins, we are guided by some basic principles: The way of the Penguin!

On the land, penguins are clumsy and pitiful; but once in the water, they become agile, fast and swim further than anyone else.

Just as the penguins, so are the humans. Clumsy and pitiful if they are in the wrong environment, or if they use the wrong tools. But once in the right setting, they can step into their full potential and grow far beyond the imaginable.

But never forget: A penguin in the desert will never become a giraffe. The penguin could train and exercise as much as he wants. Trying to stretch his neck further,… but the desert is and will stay the wrong environment for a penguin. So what are we humans doing? If we try to perform somewhere where we do not follow our strengths, we will fail to perform.

At Penguin, we create both: the right environment for our teammates to grow, and the right tools for our clients. Let’s push the penguins in the water!

This is the way of the Penguin:

CIRCLE OF TRUST

Trust is in the basis of a strong team. We strive to create a strong circle of trust among all penguin-teamies, so that everyone feels safe — to rely on the others, to experiment, to be part of the family. Only then can we all develop and show our best as a team. And then to bring the same trust to our extended circle — our customers.

OPEN & TRANSPARENT

We value transparency and openness — both to one another and to the work we do. Sharing ideas. Collaborating. Building a community. Because sharing is caring. Cooperation above competition.

IMPROVE YOURSELF

We have this thing in common — we are all students, in our way. We learn on a daily basis; individually and together. Developing ourselves continuously helps us to be on top of new technologies, to come up with innovative ideas, to keep our brains moving. We become better everyday in what we do, and strive for excellence.

ENJOY WHAT YOU DO

By focusing on what one likes and does best, they become more engaged and successful (according to GALLUP studies). We do what we like. Work can be, and should be fun. We try to minimize the boring parts, cut the red tape to zero, so that we can focus on what each one of us finds enjoyable. #TGIM

BE PROFESSIONAL & STAY COOL

We are professional in all we do. But we stay cool. It is important for us to keep the start-up vibe also when we grow. We know how to have fun, and try to incorporate that within our workdays. Because one can be successful also without a tie and champagne. ;)

RESPECT OTHERS AND THEIR DATA

We respect the individuals, their choice and data; thus, treat it with extra care and transparency. Data belongs to individuals, and its usage must be their decision. To foster the harmony between individuals and technology.
