The Culture of Capstan
Family Values
At Capstan we’re engineers, attorneys, and tax professionals.
We’re also parents, grandparents, and children.
We place a priority on family, and it shows:
- General workplace flexibility
- Emphasis on work-life balance
- Celebration of family milestones
- Child and pet-friendly workplace
- Kids (and pets, sometimes) are encouraged to participate in company activities, particularly those of a philanthropic nature
Fun is Priority
We take our fun seriously.
We’ve intentionally cultivated a lighthearted culture, and fortunately there aren’t a lot of egos to get in the way. Team members at all levels socialize naturally, which facilitates greater productivity when it is time to get back to business.
And whether we’re across the table from each other – or just across the screen – we do have fun:
- Celebrations of team and individual milestones
- Go-karting with engraved trophies
- Axe-throwing
- Trivia tournaments
- Off-key birthday serenades (with or without an original haiku)
- “Chuck Norris joke” contests
- Food trucks, barbecues, boat trips
- Recognition and occasional commemoration of strange national holidays (Chocolate Éclair Day, Thank Your Mailman Day, etc.)
- Matching Capstan gear – including fluffy slippers — for the entire team
This is the best workplace culture I’ve ever experienced. You’re surrounded by people who truly enjoy working together. Leadership genuinely cares about team members, and that’s evident in every interaction. Capstan is a special place.
