Genuine, open, and humble
I've never worked in such a place where it genuinely feels like you can openly share on the team. Everyone's so humble. Everyone's so willing to make the best end product we can. I'm super grateful that I work for a team where it feels like you can be so open and everyone leaves egos at the door. Never have I ever worked on a team like this before.
