Support Values

Our values

Take ownership

Own your work from start to finish. Be proactive and self-driven. Don't wait to be told what to do. When you see a problem, jump in and solve it. Be resourceful, curious, and hands-on. If something needs doing, figure it out and make it happen. Taking ownership means being accountable for outcomes, not just tasks.

Delight users

Go beyond solving problems. Create moments that make users' days better. Be genuinely caring, reassuringly human, and empathetic in every interaction. Surprise users with your thoughtfulness and responsiveness. Bring positivity and warmth to technical conversations. When users walk away from an interaction with you, they should feel helped, valued, and hopefully a little bit delighted.

Stay humble

Check your ego at the door. Take feedback as a gift and be open to learning from anyone, regardless of their experience level or role. Share knowledge freely with the team and communicate with transparency and honesty. We get better together by staying curious, admitting what we don't know, and helping each other grow. No one has all the answers, and that's okay.

Ship fixes

Be deeply technical and hands-on. Don't just log bugs or pass tickets along - write the fix yourself. Raise PRs for docs improvements, patch code, and solve problems end-to-end. We're engineers who happen to do support, not support agents who escalate to engineers. If you can fix it, ship it. That's what makes PostHog support special.
