Strong focus on developer growth and support - lots of team collaboration and pair programming, active code reviews, bi-weekly lunch-and-learns, open source contributions encouraged, etc. You can learn more about what it's like to work at Tailwind here.
Visual Marketing — Pinterest and Instagram are growing incredibly quickly. Traditional marketing tools, however, have been slow to adapt to these platforms. We've built the right tools, and businesses that use our tools see a tremendous amount of success on these platforms.
How we're different — There are a lot of marketing tools that give you data, but don't make it actionable. We look at what's happening, and then actually tell you what it means, give you recommendations about what to do about it, and help you do it. This enables small businesses to compete against the Fortune 500 companies with teams of data scientists and quantitative marketers.

Work from Home
If you need to work from home for any reason every once in a while (your child gets sick, you have a furniture delivery, your car is in the shop, etc.) it's not a problem at all! Our unwritten policy is to make an effort to work in the office with the rest of the team as much as possible (it's important for people to show up!). And if you're going to be away for any reason, that's totally cool; just make sure that others are made aware and that you're considerate of any impact it might have on the rest of the team!
-

light bite
wednesdays where a new kind of snack or lunch is brought in by our awesome office manager each week.

Team Activities
Our teams do all sorts of activities from time to time, especially when teammates are visiting from another office. Whether it's playing a game of Catan, going out to a trivia night at a bar, or having a ping-pong tournament, we're not shy about hanging out to blow off some steam!
