SwingDev—a hippo company

✨ Pets of SwingDev ✨

As we’ve mentioned many times, we’re a pet-friendly company - and it’s not just empty words 🐾 To prove it (and pay tribute to them), we’ve created a special section on our website dedicated to our company pets. Check it out and meet our furry (and not-so-furry) teammates - from dogs and cats to other little cuties! 🐶🐱🐰

Last month, Olga Godek (Design Coordinator) and Grzegorz Niczyporuk (Engineering Manager, Quality) took the stage together at Ways Conf, sharing their talk: “How QA and Design can benefit each other?” 🎙✨
Here are a few highlights from their presentation - a great reminder of how much stronger products (and teams!) become when design and QA truly collaborate. 💡🤝

We just dropped an article on Medium about how we support growth at SwingDev.

Read it here 👇

In tech, most people don’t wait around for instructions on how to grow. They usually know what they want, or at least they’re actively…

We're fully remote, and it works. But we also like to meet up offline when it makes sense.

There’s our Warsaw HQ, plus coworking spots in Cracow, Wroclaw, Poznan, and Tricity. And if enough people are in one city, we set up new ones.

Working from home gives us focus. Meeting up gives us connection.
We don’t force either. We just keep it real.

Ice Cream Contest – Winners! 🍦

A little while ago, we ran a contest to celebrate Artisanal Ice Cream Day, asking our employees and candidates to come up with the most unique ice cream flavors. Check out the details here: https://lnkd.in/djTvRKQh

After 110 amazing flavor submissions, multiple discussions, and a few extra votes, we’ve finally selected the top three creations. The level of creativity was truly impressive, making the decision incredibly tough! But here are the flavors that stood out:

🥓 Piggy Crunch – Peanut butter & bacon by our employee
🪺 Easter Egg - Mazurek with poppy seed filling and peanut butter by our employee
🌅 Golden Hour Sorbet – Grapefruit, coconut rum & chili by the candidate

A huge shoutout to our talented employees and candidates for their creativity—we can’t wait to try these! Starting March 24, you’ll be able to taste them for two weeks at all Kuncer locations. Don't miss out on the chance to see (and taste) what innovation looks like in ice cream form! 🍦

Being a part of Hippo means two things: we build cool stuff and we enjoy a good meme. So here’s a little something for Hippo Day! 🦛

What do we have in common with hippos? 🤔

More than you might think:
• Heavyweight – Hippos are big. Our code can be, too—but that’s just part of building good stuff 💪
• Keeping it cool – Hippos spend their days in the water 🌊. We try to keep things just as steady at work.
• Making waves – They might look relaxed, but hippos can shake things up. We know when to do the same.
• Good communication – Hippos make their own sounds underwater. We stick to Git and Slack 💬
• Bug squashers – Hippos don’t mess around 🪲 and neither do we when fixing bugs.
• Big appetites – Maybe not for grass, but when it comes to snacks, we can relate 🍩

Happy Hippo Day! 🦛

Last but not least, we’re excited to finally share more about our new branding for the design perspective! 🎉

🌱 From a bold new logo to a dynamic color palette and clean typography. This new identity is flexible, scalable, and designed to grow, just like we do.

🥁 We promised another post about our new brand—this time, it’s all about our refreshed values! And that’s particularly important topic to us, since it’s not about some future goals or a box to check off—it’s about who we’ve been and what we truly believe in.

⏳ A while ago, back when we started thinking about refreshing the values, we held workshops, one-on-ones, and meetings. All the insights from our people contributed to the outcome that is here for you to see—in both the descriptions of the values and their visual form.

🤩 Swipe through for a sneak peek, and check our latest article where we share our perspective on what these values mean for us: https://medium.com/swinginc/our-refreshed-values-more-than-just-words-b6389080e7bb
