These days, we’re well versed in the concept of company culture. And while pool or ping-pong tables, fridges stocked full of snacks or hammocks in meeting rooms might have held sway pre-pandemic when the workplace was confined to an office building, in recent years company values, standards and beliefs are being brought into sharper focus as the barometer of what it’s really like to work at an organisation.
