Notion

About

Notion is the connected workspace where better, faster work happens. Our story Early computing pioneers envisioned a future where machines on our desks could amplify our imagination, extend our intellect, and help us model information in ways never before seen. This is the type of tool we want to build together at Notion — one that gives you the software you can mold and shape like clay to solve your problems your way. We’ve heard Notion described many ways. It can be as simple as a blank piece of paper, making writing feel light and delightful. It can be as complex as a relational database that stores huge amounts of data. We sometimes compare it to a set of Legos (if Legos were designed by The New York Times). But at its core, Notion is a toolbox of software building blocks that let you manage your life and work however you find most useful. To make this possible, we’ve brought together a diverse team of individuals passionate about computing, history, art, alternative programming languages, music, skateboarding, and craft. Today, we’re growing faster than ever across offices in San Francisco, New York, Dublin, Hyderabad and Tokyo 🇺🇸 🇮🇪 🇮🇳 🇯🇵 Our values We are drivers of our mission. We’re driven by our commitment to empower every person on the planet to use software exactly the way they want. Be a pace setter. We move with urgency so we can set the cadence for our market, cover more ground, and ship more great products and programs for our users, faster. Be a truth seeker. We pursue the best data, ideas, and solutions with rigor and open-mindedness, always guided by our users’ most pressing needs. Be kind and direct. We deliver feedback in the spirit of helping our colleagues improve, balancing sensitivity with caring honesty. We’re in this together.
