Their goal is to attract and retain great people, representing a wide range of perspectives and skills, to work together as a dream team.

According to the company itself, it empowers all its employees so that they can have a significant impact and contribution in decision-making; each employee has the freedom and power to make decisions and take actions in the best interest of the company in the performance of their duties.

In return, your employees are held accountable for those decisions and actions.

With this approach, Netflix believes that it is «a more flexible, fun, stimulating, creative, collaborative and successful organization.»
