I love the flexible working hours. I like being able to reshuffle my day to meet both the clients’ needs and my own. I can go to the gym during the day when it’s quiet as I don’t have to be at my desk 9-5. Tyk trusts its team and encourages us to own what we do and take responsibility. It’s an approach that suits me.

In many companies, values are just words, without much belief. Tyk is different. We really mean it. For example, we believe that there are no stupid questions. This is something that’s really at the heart of the business. The company structure is flat for this purpose – anyone can talk to anyone about anything.

Because of Tyk, I know now what it really means to have a work/life balance. Before, I’d heard of the term but never really experienced it. Since I joined Tyk, my personal and professional life has drastically changed.
