Our values tell the story of Tyk – here's how: It's ok to screw up!We've found that it's often the 'stupid' or unexpected ideas that turn out to be the successful ones – so try it, at least we can say we have!
The only stupid idea, is the untested one!It's in our DNA – starting a business with founders 12 hours apart, giving our gateway away for free – sure, we did that, and we'd do it again!
Trust starts with you – make it count!Trust is a two-way street – instill it from day one!
We have each other's back – we're all on the same team. Think before you speak or act.
Make things better!Always try to leave things better than when you found them – change is constant, inevitable and embraced! Be that change we want to see.
Tyk is an equal opportunities employer and we are determined to ensure that no applicant or employee receives less favourable treatment on the grounds of gender, age, disability, religion, belief, sexual orientation, marital status, or race, or is disadvantaged by conditions or requirements which cannot be shown to be justifiable.
