Our Ideal Candidate Will Value What We Value

At Switcher, we embrace our Core Values and believe they’re what makes working within our team culture special.

We’re Creating Something Great

We think big — big growth, big product improvements, big impact — but we stay nimble, recognizing that we reach greatness through small steps and agile changes. We prioritize what’s important, letting data guide our decision-making. We refuse to stagnate.

We Learn From Our Customers

We work not for our customers but with them. We strive to create simple, accessible solutions for our customers’ needs, and we do this through actively listening to them, empathizing with them, and working alongside them. We win when our customers win.

 

We Build Each Other Up

We are a team, one whose members are committed to helping each other grow and succeed. We work collaboratively rather than competitively, highlighting others’ wins. We foster healthy relationships and continuous personal development to ensure everyone flourishes. 

We Are Open And Honest

We are open to debate, open to feedback, open to changing course. That means speaking up — to and for each other — and doing so with respect and integrity. It also means admitting mistakes and having hard conversations, knowing they make us better.

We Win Through Diverse Perspectives

We value having multiple points of view, not just in our videos but also in our decision-making. Seeking out different perspectives allows us to challenge our thinking, bringing nuance to our understanding and ultimately leading to the best business outcomes.

The Company

At Switcher, we believe in the power of video.
