I feel like this describes my present employer. The company culture emphasizes that everyone should experience maximum Autonomy, Mastery, Purpose, Transparency, Empathy and Fun in their job. Hierarchy is way less important to us than getting results. We're in Toronto and we have more about this at our website: https://nulogy.com/

How is management structured? How are product decisions made?

Ah! Josh, your name was familiar to some of my coworkers!

A couple of points to answer your questions:

- We do centralize our product strategy and portfolio planning, but we decentralize our release and iteration planning.

- We focus on building strong teams of diverse talent sets that are becoming more self managing. Teamwork is big for us, flying solo on any task is rare-r than in other places I've worked.

- Our management (and everyone else) are really accessible for a medium sized company. I have faith that if I sent a calendar invite to our C*O for a 15 min chat on a free timeslot, they'd show up. Of course, respect goes both ways and I wouldn't book their time unless I really needed them specifically and it couldn't be handled asynchronously.

Thanks for the questions!

Well, the point is some companies don't have management. Sounds like yours does ;)
