Reed Hastings

We want people who are passionate about their work, but also passionate about Netflix.

We are not a democracy. We are a meritocracy.

There are no sacred cows.

We don't have annual performance reviews. We have continuous feedback.

The biggest mistake we made was not moving faster on streaming.

We want to be a company that takes big swings.

We're trying to build the best entertainment company in the world.

We don't have a lot of meetings. We have a lot of discussions.

We're not trying to be everything to everyone.

We're very focused on our customers, and we're very focused on our content.

We want to be a company where people feel like they can take risks and make mistakes.

We're constantly experimenting and trying new things.

We're not afraid to fail.

We're a learning organization.

We're trying to build a company that will last for a long time.

We're not a tech company, we're an entertainment company.

We're very focused on getting the right people on the bus.

We want to empower our employees.

We're trying to create a culture of freedom and responsibility.

We're very transparent with our employees.
