I've become pretty cynical of company principles and values. My experience of this is that it's usually an exercise of leadership getting together and coming up with a bunch of things they wish they were, then putting them on the wall as if it makes them true. In reality though it's really hard to make these things true.

The Four Official Core Values:

- Respect: Treating others as one would like to be treated, while explicitly rejecting ruthlessness, callousness, and arrogance.

- Integrity: Working with customers and prospects openly, honestly, and sincerely, and honoring commitments.

- Communication: Maintaining an obligation to talk and listen to one another, believing information is meant to move people.

- Excellence: Demanding the very best in all operations and continuously raising performance standards.
