Our Values
1. We are entrepreneurs first At Times Internet, we love geeks, nerds and other such
outcasts who dare to dream insane. We provide resources, autonomy, culture or anything
else to make them successful. Our employees take ownership and operate like intrapreneurs
to help convert great ideas into great products.
2. Consumer focus Everything that we do has to significantly benefit the consumer. Do we
make money by doing this? You bet! But bringing values to our consumers and making them
happy is our priority.
3. Trust and respect At Times Internet, everyone has equal power and opportunity to voice
their opinion and get their ideas heard. We work as a team towards one goal - building great
stuff for our consumers.
