Life at Yolk
Our vision was to build a work environment that fully realises the potential of every person through our support, philosophy, processes and profits.
Work should be busy and challenging. It should make you think, and apply yourself to new situations. It shouldn’t be a breeze. It should test you. It should push you. It should motivate you to do and be your best.
But never at the expense of lighter times. There should be laughs, friendly competition, Friday-night drinks. There should be rewards and recognition; a pat on the back. People willing you to do well, and you them. Support. Encouragement. Positivity. You should want to come back tomorrow.
It's a culture where everyone wins.
