From its inception the founders recognised that these factors are fundamental for any business to succeed so best practices are enforced to ensure everyone is happy and thriving in the company. These practices take many forms from having yearly Xmas shutdowns, regular workplace reviews, instructing staff to not work past business hours (and paying overtime if this rarely occurs), declining new clients as to not overwork their staff and to not provide 24/7 technical support such that no one has to be on call.
