“If you would not be working remotely, you would also not have a paper bag over your head during a meeting, would you? You can choose a webcam from your computer or an external one.” — Maika Hoekman, Head of People Operations

We are crazy about self-development and take every opportunity we can to learn. Every failure, victory, difficult conversation, and instance of feedback are a chance for us to learn and improve on a daily basis. If we fail, we take ownership of our mistakes, reflect on them and learn. If we succeed we ensure we celebrate this and share our achievements with others. — Bunny’s Values
