We build software that improves workplace relationships
People spend a lot of time at work. That time has a big impact on how people feel and how they show up in their personal relationships. If you’re unhappy at work, you’re likely to carry that stress into other aspects of your life. The majority of stress at work can be alleviated through working with good managers.
If you have a bad management culture and you implement a new chat app, you’ll still have a bad management culture. It’ll simply move the problems to a new environment. The world has many collaboration tools that just amplify the culture already exists. What if we could create a tool to improve management culture?
At WorkPatterns we work tirelessly to help teams to operate more effectively and with greater clarity by guiding and enhancing the relationship between managers and their direct reports.
This is who we are and the values that guide us forward as a team
Achieving our mission will require persistent execution and rapid adaptation as we learn and iterate.
Inventing new solutions for new challenges is a guiding principle for our product and the way we operate as a team.
Being pretty isn't enough, we're committed to building a product that sparks joy for our end-users.
Work should be a source of pride, meaning, accomplishment, and a place where you develop lasting relationships. What we do is who we are. We care a lot about our work, we also care about each other.
We believe people do their best work when they’re satisfied in all aspects of their life. Internally, we embrace this by prioritizing flexibility, work-life balance, focus time, and asynchronous collaboration.

We started with a hybrid work structure from day 1 (way back in 2018!) Our operating cadence puts a focus on asynchronous communication and uninterrupted focus time, but also allows for the right amount synchronous collaboration and regularly scheduled in-person offsites:
These are 2 days long and have been held in SF, LA, and Mexico City. The goal is to plan for the next quarter as well as have time to get to know each other in a real world setting.
In between offsites, we have a virtual check in to see what’s working well and what needs to be changed from the plan developed at the offsite.
We work in 2 week sprints that keep us nimble but also ensure clear deliverables.
We kickoff every monday with a full team sync to align for the week’s work and to set us up for working autonomously without too many interruptions.
