BrainDo’s 2019 Thankful List

How did we figure this out?

We sent an anonymous survey out to all 20 team members to rank various answers and included a section for them to fill out as extra items. The results came in and the findings are below.

Our first chart highlights a mixture of work-centric topics as well as team-centric topics.

Our Top Results

Collaboration:
The most popular vote, with a total 78%, was Collaboration. This wasn’t a huge surprise since a big part of our culture is collaborating with each other! Whether it’s collaborating for a client request, or coming up with activities after work, teamwork plays a major part of our day in and outside of BrainDo.

Teamwork:
Which brings up the second-place vote being “Our Team”. We’re a special and talented group who all genuinely get along– what’s not to like about that!?

“I’m thankful for a stable work environment that allows me to improve every day… and client’s being appreciative of our expertise and work.”

Work Results Ranked

Honorable Mentions

• After Work Activities: A handful of BrainDoers genuinely hang out. Activities in the past include sporting events, video game streaming, building keyboards, and brewery visits.
• BYODog: Always a great perk to have office dogs and it has been part of our office culture since the beginning.
• Harvest Emails: Filling out your timesheet isn’t known as a fun thing in the work world, but we send comical emails at the end of the week as a reminder to fill them out.
• Lunch Groups: It’s unlikely to find anyone eating their lunch here alone – there is always a group going out for grub and even have certain days like “Halal Tuesdays”.

Team Results Ranked

Extra: Out of the fill in quote, we selected ones that were worth noting and sharing.

Anonymous teammate quotes:

“I’m thankful for so much here. Everyone being awesome people period. Everyone being amazing at what they do is a bonus. Also thankful for Tim’s Harvest emails, Harrison’s brewery shirts…”

“Laughs on laughs on laughs”

“Great people, awesome clients, and a wonderful work environment”

This survey really helped us realize how thankful we are for our team and how special of a group we are.
