Asana

Asana was built towards maintaining its values and culture. You can see how they manifest through people's actions and how they set up their teams and their work. People seem like they always look forward to setting each other up for success and rely on collaboration a lot to ensure things are working. The work people do is very visible, as we all use Asana as a work tool. This brings great clarity and makes each person feel useful within the big picture of things. All values are well lived and demonstrated through everyone's work. It is executed very smoothly, and people are typically very careful on optimizing for alignment and clarity before making strong decisions and taking feedback openly.

Getting used to Asana's way of work is quite a learning curve. Starting up can be overwhelming, and the onboarding is thorough and at times heavy. However, it's helpful to have it as a reference for the future. Still, I don't think I'm able to remember many things from onboarding, as there were so many different topics. It takes some time going through it and internalizing the knowledge.

Thanks for cultivating this positive and collaborative culture.
