"Why “Tiger”? The tiger has been our mascot since 2017, symbolizing the speed, power, and precision we strive for in our database. Over time, it’s become a core part of our culture: from weekly “Tiger Time” All Hands and monthly “State of the Tiger” business reviews, to welcoming new teammates as “tiger cubs” to the “jungle.”

Cringe...!!!



Can you imagine joining a company and getting referred to as a tiger cub. I suspect they don’t have much in way of HR



Companies with much in way of HR are even worse


Yeah, the kind of BS a pointy-haired boss or tech-bro considers foster "company culture"


Meh, it's just a bit of fun. While I don't lean too much into it myself, it's a good way of finding a company where all the grumpy hermits have self-selected themselves away.


Not wanting to be a "tiger cub" introduced to the "jungle" does not make one a grumpy hermit.


Nah, that's the kind of corporate "fun" the grumpy hermits impose
