Values define our culture. They guide who we hire, how we work, what we prioritize, and how we reach our mission, our vision, and our strategic goals. They are Nestig’s core beliefs and principles. While culture evolves every day — with every new hire and every new decision — values are the compass that guides our evolution.
Unlike other organizations, Nestig supports and embodies the values listed below because we chose them ourselves, and they are what we aspire to every single day.
