Organizational Values

• Strong Hypotheses, Loosely Held: We’re creative, collaborative, and intellectually honest in solving problems. We proactively propose hypotheses, then remain open-minded to new ideas and diverse perspectives
• Inspiring People: Our standards are incredibly high. We choose to work with people who inspire us with excellence, integrity, grit, and passion
• We Are A Team: We share success and setbacks as a team. While we won’t always agree, we “disagree and commit” to make outcomes successful. We hold one another blameless when things go wrong and work together to fix problems. Obstacles, crises, and failures are opportunities to reflect and grow
• Speed Matters: Our mission requires velocity and agility. We recognize when decisions are reversible, so we move towards action rather than endless study. No plan survives first contact with reality; we expect to learn and adapt quickly.
• Ownership Mentality: We run towards challenges with an ownership mentality, seeking solutions proactively. We take responsibility for outcomes, especially when things are tough. We never say, “someone else will handle it."
• Bedrock Energy is building a strong culture based on 8 organizational values. Candidates should have a history of demonstrating these values in other organizations
• Soft on People, Tough on Problems: We communicate directly and transparently. We debate the facts without getting personal and disagree without being disagreeable. We set up our colleagues for success by pairing honest feedback with empathy, compassion, and respect
• Technical Excellence: We solve problems with simple, resourceful, high-quality solutions. We consider real-world circumstances, risks, and trade-offs. We do not take chances with people’s safety
• Think BIG: We’re bold, confident, and focused when we act and communicate. We do not accept the status quo and never say something is impossible. Thinking BIG is a self-fulfilling prophecy
