Sprint planning happens Monday mornings (Vietnam time). Demos go to clients every Friday. Slack is for decisions that need speed; Notion holds anything that needs to last. We celebrate shipped milestones, not hours logged. Office days are optional social anchors — pair programming, lunch, and whiteboard sessions — not attendance policies.
Our process is practical and transparent — typically 2–3 weeks from screen to offer. Every step has a clear purpose; none are performative.
