Toptal®的文化
概述
Toptal是一家重视态度胜过一切的公司.
我们的愿景是成为世界上最伟大的人才公司, and we’ve scaled 快er than any other talent company in history through our relentless attitude toward innovation and strong execution. 我们独特的成功来自于强烈的职业道德, 勤奋的心态, 还有长远的眼光.
Many companies hire talent solely based on their hard skills—engineers who can code, 会销售的销售人员, 能够营销的营销人员, 以及介于两者之间的一切. 这里是Toptal, 我们要求最好的, but we care even more that the attitude of everyone on our team is tightly aligned with our 文化属性. 我们重视态度胜过一切，这是我们成功的核心.
讲讲Toptal
Toptal为超创新和超增长而优化. 如果你欣赏亚马逊这样的地方的文化, 特斯拉, 英特尔, and startups that push the limits of innovation while demanding extreme time and energy to become a success, 那么你会喜欢在Toptal工作的.
Toptal is not only a place to progress your career; it is a place to progress your idea of what quality means. 这是一个提升你对深度的理解的地方. It is a place to progress your ideas and learn how to develop extreme innovations that push business and technology forward.
这在实践中意味着什么? 首先，我们工作非常努力. 作为一家远程公司, we don’t know or care how many hours you spend sitting in a chair—we care about results. 我们是一家充满干劲的公司, 雄心勃勃，关心影响力的人, 而影响力需要原始的努力. We expect you to be proud of having that level of impact and to be eager for more.
我们也是一家质量第一的公司. 我们专注于顶尖人才和顶尖客户, 这一原则也渗透到我们所有的工作中. 我们为自己的工作感到自豪. 我们仔细考虑如何将我们所做的每件事的影响最大化, 不管它有多小. 我们注重细节，不能容忍错误. 我们不能容忍破窗户. 我们的行为就好像我们承担的每一个项目都是我们性格的反映. By pushing ourselves to our limits, we progress our idea of what quality is and what we can achieve. 我们会变得更好, 快, and we look back at our own growth and at the impact of what we’ve built to learn how to execute even better in the future.

文化属性
在Toptal, 我们必须在文化和, 多年来, 我们已经确定了推动我们成功的几个特点. 以下是我们的文化属性.
我们是谁:
驱动
你被驱使去取得非凡的成果. 你督促自己和身边的人做到最好，对自己负责. 你推动你的团队超越他们认为可能的范围. 你足智多谋，遇到任何问题都能自己解决.
熟练的
You are extremely skilled in your area of expertise, and you constantly strive to uplevel yourself. You coach individuals who are not as skilled as you, and you push them to be better. 你可以随时随地运用你的技能.
统一
你擅长综合许多人之间的讨论和想法. You have an ability to take ideas from those individuals and integrate them into a simple, 辉煌的结果.
雄心勃勃的
你的目标是取得非凡的成就. 你不能让自己或团队设定适度的目标，然后随随便便地去实现. 你推动创新，你推动估计，你推动期望.
鼓舞人心的
你非常关心你所做的事情，你的奉献是值得注意的. 你用自己的故事和能量激励别人. You know how to show your team members the impact of their work and get them excited about the future.
具有挑战性的
You never accept what someone says as truth if you disagree with it—no matter what authority that person has in the company—and you always challenge people directly, 不是通过反向渠道. 你质疑和挑战想法, 从政策到产品决策, 你总是试图理解每件事背后的原因.
揭示
你把问题带到了前台. You call the attention of the executive team and the company as a whole as you proactively flag problems across product, 工程, 销售, 以及公司的其他部门.
这可能是所有原则中最重要的.
理解
当一个问题引起你的注意时，你必须倾听并理解它. 这并不意味着我们必须满足所有的观点——我们是精英管理, 不是民主，但你必须在做出反应之前倾听和理解问题.
知识渊博的
You understand the goals and objectives that exist within your team and can articulate them in a single sentence. You constantly share those goals and principles with your team to ensure everyone has perfect understanding and alignment.
有帮助的
You’re always available to help and coach others—whether it’s with a technical challenge, 人际关系问题, 或者任何其他类型的障碍.
你对他人的帮助在Toptal尤其受到重视.
如果你想成为第一，创新，引领未来，加入Toptal. 加入道达尔是为了赢，为了创新，为了与最优秀的人一起工作.
并不是每个人都适合在Toptal工作.
你不应该加入Toptal的原因有很多. For example, a common misconception about remote work is that it equates to an easy job. 不在这里. 根据我们的经验, 你将比以往任何时候都更加努力地工作, 但如果你的动机是影响力, 你会在工作中比以往任何时候都更快乐. You also do not join Toptal if you think teams should not have aggressive deadlines and goals. You do not join Toptal if you think there are things in this universe that cannot be measured. You do not join Toptal if you want to simply A/B test ideas without making sure everything passes our quality standards first. You do not join Toptal if you’re just going to copy competitors because you can’t think of better ideas yourself. You do not join Toptal if you don’t wake up every single day and ask yourself how you can be better, 和和你有同样想法的人在一起, 把做到最好作为一个原则.
我们不是谁:
懒惰的
We have an unlimited vacation policy, but we do not abuse it and we never leave our team hanging. 在Toptal，没有人会精疲力竭，这一点非常重要, but we are not a 9-to-5 workplace as we see this mindset as detrimental to the strong work ethic we embrace. Toptalers must carefully plan their time off relative to the urgency and importance of their initiatives.
休闲室
我们不是一个轻易给出最后期限或目标的公司. Team leads are expected to be extremely ambitious and to demand the same from their teams.
缺乏信心的
我们不重视优柔寡断的领导人. We expect leaders to be able to confidently make decisions, back them up, and lead by example.
害怕
We do not tolerate leaders or team members who are scared to bring problems to the forefront or who shy away from difficult conversations. We expect all leaders and team members to proactively uncover and communicate problems at Toptal. 这可能是我们不是什么的最重要的例子.
不鼓舞人的
在道达尔，我们依靠能量茁壮成长, 如果你不能激励周围的人, 你的团队会停滞不前. 你应该通过解决难题来获得动力, 产生影响, 与你的团队进行有魅力的沟通.
粗心的
We don’t tolerate people who are here only because of the paycheck or the ability to work remotely, 我们相信这会导致粗心大意. 你应该去Toptal工作, 或者任何公司, 因为你关心人民, 文化, 还有任务.
不可用
We don’t work with leaders who want to turn off their phone at the end of the day because they don’t want to be bothered. 作为Toptal的领导, you’re expected to be available and to inform your team whenever you cannot be by clearly setting expectations. 这并不意味着我们会每天晚上用信息轰炸你, or even frequently; however, 总有一天你的团队需要你，你需要随时待命.
矛盾
你不应该对公司的文化感到矛盾. 我们的文化价值观是独一无二的, and you should be excited about joining a movement that embodies a spirit you believe in.
领导者树立榜样，因为领导者以身作则
我们的反馈是直接的，从不害怕挑战对方, 不管在公司里的头衔是什么. 我们看重那些能看到我们看不到的东西的人——那些能持相反观点的人. 事情有时会变得很激烈，这通常是件好事. It means we’re getting closer to making the right decision and that people truly care.
我们的文化雄心勃勃. 你的队友会把你逼到极限，而你也会把他们逼到极限. 你会遇到困难的障碍，有时还会遇到挫折. 你将克服挑战，并为自己的成长和影响力感到自豪, 还有你帮助建立的公司.
在Toptal，任何问题都不会太难. 当现有的工具不足以运行高速增长的业务时, 我们创造了全新的编程语言和框架. 当我们需要新的解决方案时，我们会大规模发布 开源项目. 当我们需要在保持高质量标准的同时进行扩展时, 我们创造了世界一流的操作和筛选流程. And we’ve shattered records set by every other company in our space along the way. 我们取得这一切并不是因为我们的硬技能, 而是因为我们信奉的文化价值观和态度.
如果这些文化价值观与你产生共鸣，欢迎来到Toptal.
和最好的人一起工作，为了最好的人.
