Our Values
Always Moving Forward
Every day matters at VSCO— we get things done and take full ownership over our roles and impact. We are driven to do our best work and have a bias for action that keeps us moving forward.
Build Together
When we win, we win together. We value teamwork and cooperation over individual showmanship, and recognize that we are part of a whole that is great than the sum of its parts.
Be You
We are an open and honest team. We encourage people to bring their whole self to work, and we respect and value each other’s diverse perspectives. We place immense importance on family, health, and balance.
Honor Expression
We value creativity and take a mindful approach to what we’re building. We see the art in every job, every function — we reimagine the status quo and push for flexibility, efficiency, and differentiation.
Stay Humble
We approach our work with humility and self-awareness, staying grounded in our mission. Our team recognizes that we accomplish more when no one is worried about who gets credit.
