I just finished updating our Ning Jobs page and wanted to put the word out that we’re looking for a few great people to join the team:
If your interested (and qualified!), drop us a note and resume at jobs@ning.com.
And for some background on us, here’s a bit of our philosophy and some photos of our digs:
- Run fast, fly low, and be cheap
- Have working social sites that you can point us to today
- Keep everyone informed, both on the good news and the bad news
- Organize based on a cell structure for both developer and non-developer teams
- Flat organization with small, iterative teams of highly productive people
- Transparency – review projects often and keep an open dialogue among different groups
- Reward innovation, ingenuity, and hard work
- Meritocracy
- Evaluate and reward managers based on development of people
- Top down reassignments of high achievers
- Build a team with potential, drive, curiosity, intelligence and ambition
- Take chances on people without a track record – grow together as a team
- Train people
- Everyone teaches
- Honest, frequent feedback
- Weekly 1:1, staff, and all hands meetings
- Written career development plans
