We chose Open Source and Cooperation

Values that define us

Dalibo is defined especially through its values:

• sharing, through its contributions at different levels (free software, PostgreSQL community, SCOP community, sponsoring, etc.). Dalibo also shares its knowledge through many channels: all of our training materials are in free access, webinars and other workshops as well as the PGSession event. And that’s not all, because Dalibo is really committed, sharing is also done financially through sponsorship for open source projects, PostgreSQL events. The financial aspect of sharing also goes to the employees, as the profits are shared among them;

• transparency, visible to the general public especially through articles that Dalibo publishes on its internal work methods. Internally, this transparency is made possible by an openness at many levels (everyone can participate to recruit new employees, almost all meetings are open to every employees interested in participating: any meeting, from management committee to general assemblies), including financial aspects, made understandable for everyone, and also published regularly;

• expertise, through training (for our interns, but also for our employees via skills transfer, demos, open-source working time), mentoring and integration. Dalibo tends to improve the skills of employees, which also allows this expertise to be shared outside of the company. Thus Dalibo shares its expertise during audits, conferences, interviews and experiences’ sharing (on the technical side for PostgreSQL, but also on the SCOP aspect).

• respect. This value starts in Dalibo with the human aspect (respect in meetings, convictions, but also on work-related qualité of life) and also passes through the life of the company where regular work is done on welcoming new people, individual development and on the acceptance of collective decisions. Respect also passes through the recognition of each person’s professional skills. Finally, Dalibo recognizes makes a point of honor to respect a form of respect for its customers by providing quality work within reasonable time frames, this respect which also applies to partners and suppliers in our daily relations in order to maintain a good relationship.
