“Culture”

When is a staircase more than a staircase? When it becomes a symbol for your company culture. The open, spiral staircase in Verkada’s San Mateo headquarters spans three floors and connects both wings of our building. To us, it represents connection, a free flow of ideas and information and an easy way for employees to move up, down, and across our space. It also represents our truly collaborative company culture.

We want all of our employees to connect with the values we established when the company was much smaller. In this series, team members will share what each of these values means to them — and how they are applied in practice here at Verkada.

Agility is core to who we are and how we operate at Verkada. Our founders recognized the clear gap in the market for a modern, cloud-based enterprise security system. We filled that gap, and very quickly grew into a $3.2 billion company. We’re proud to apply that very same spirit of agility and responsiveness to how we build our team and culture. Intensely data-driven, we’ve built a people organization that constantly collects employee feedback to inform the benefits we offer and the culture we’re building
