The TEECOM Way: Culture and Collaboration

The TEECOM Way: Culture and Collaboration

In five short years, TEECOM has transformed from a West Coast-based team into a fully remote firm spanning AMER and EMEA. We are often asked how we are so successful as a remote team, and the answer lies in our strong communication, collaborative culture, and a shared commitment to delivering excellence, no matter where we are in the world.

This shift has enabled us to grow significantly, and we're proud to announce that TEECOM has been named one of the 2024 Fortune Best Workplaces in the Bay Area. This recognition reflects the hard work and dedication of our entire team, and sets the tone for an exciting future. 

Connecting Virtually

At TEECOM, our culture runs deep, shaping everything we do. It’s more than how we identify, it’s at the very core of our existence.  Our core values include care, trust, and value, and we hire people who naturally share these qualities. For the past 27 years, we've grown by embracing change and fostering a strong culture that attracts top talent in both technology consulting and technology engineering. We’re deliberate in connecting  with our team, believing that our success starts from within.

At our company, transparency promotes fairness and sets clear standards. We openly discuss goals, performance, and improvements through public Slack channels, company-wide meetings, "ask me anything" sessions with the CEO & President, and by acknowledging employee achievements.

As a fully remote team, we hire the best talent regardless of location and provide the tools, education, and mentorship necessary for career growth. This flexibility benefits both our employees and the company.

We believe teamwork and cross-collaboration are essential for achieving our best work. By combining our strengths and resources, we tackle challenges and find effective solutions.

Our commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion is reflected in our DEI program and WXIE, our employee resource group for women and gender minorities. These initiatives ensure pay and promotion equity, diversify recruiting, provide DEI education, and create supportive spaces for all employees.

“One of the first words that comes to mind when I think about TEECOM is opportunity. The chance to learn from others and build relationships is a hallmark of TEECOM. This has allowed me to acquire and strengthen skills that are key to succeeding not only in my role but company-wide as well. Colleagues are happy to assist when called upon and not afraid to listen to peers, making way for a genuinely collaborative space, embodying the meaning of ‘TEEm’.” - Jake Candler, Associate, Project Manager I

Looking Ahead

As we look to the future, we're excited to continue building on our strong foundation of culture and collaboration. We believe that our success is defined by the relationships we foster and the values we uphold. By staying true to our commitment to transparency, inclusivity, and teamwork, we will continue to grow and innovate as a fully remote firm. Together, we will push boundaries, embrace new challenges, and create a positive impact in everything we do. Learn more about TEECOM and our culture by clicking here.
