Why I Love Working at Logos: Evan Washkow

It’s not just the environment that makes a great workplace; it’s also the people.

Logos is not so much an employer as it is a collector of talented people who love what they do. To me, that’s the most exciting and important thing about working at Logos. Every day, I’m excited to go to work—to hang out with my work buddies, learn new coding techniques, crunch out some amazing web pages, and sometimes even play in a Super Mario Smash Brothers competition.

No drama, no mystery

I think the best thing about Logos’ core values is that there’s no drama, no mystery, no “Oh, what’s so-and-so thinking?” going on in the back of my mind. Everyone is open and honest. Because of that knowledge, I can go confidently from task to task, be myself, ask questions, and even have the freedom to push back on projects that “aren’t quite right.” Most of all, I appreciate the honest feedback that helps me grow as an individual.

In fact, this open and honest atmosphere helps everyone grow together, as a team. Each of us has their own strengths and weaknesses. When we’re open about them, we realize who we are, who we’re not, and also who our teammates are and are not. With this understanding, we get things done quickly by deferring to those who know more than us, and those more experienced individuals take the time to help us grow. Admitting that “I don’t know” is the first step to knowledge; the second is knowing how to find the answers. The atmosphere at Logos helps me to do just that, and as a result, I’m constantly growing and learning.

A fun work environment

Logos is also a fun place to work! Imagine limitless soda, limitless espresso, food-truck stakeouts in the summer, air hockey, ping-pong, Nerf wars, foosball, and gaming tournaments at the office—that’s Logos. We get a lot of work done each day, and we have a blast doing it. All these options (and more) help me work harder, longer, and faster—and help me enjoy my job that much more. They’re just kind of the cherry on top that makes my job feel fun, special, and important.

Logos has done more than just collect talented people. It’s succeeded in creating an atmosphere of growth and community: we’re encouraged to work hard and have fun!
