WillowTree’s global teams orchestrate winning experiences for the world's most customer-centric brands.
A global team of teams
Building and retaining great teams has always been core to our mission. Human-centered design is not only how we build great digital experiences, but how we’ve built our business.
Staffing Purpose-Built ‘Tiger Teams’
When the stakes are high, WillowTree is the partner that delivers. Our teams succeed in the face of immovable deadlines and mission-critical challenges, whether streaming the Super Bowl with FOX Sports, building a digital-first bank with Synchrony Financial, or redesigning pizza ordering with Domino’s.
A single discipline can’t solve complex challenges. Launching new digital products, harnessing the latest in generative AI, and building customer loyalty all require seamlessly combining expertise from multiple disciplines: strategy, design, engineering, marketing, and artificial intelligence.
It’s not enough to talk about the latest tech. A true partner understands where in the customer journey to deploy it, how to design for it, and how to connect it to the larger enterprise. Other firms have bolted on these capabilities — as digital natives, we’ve built them into our teams from Day One.
Accelerating Time to Value.
When it comes to building software, quality and speed matter. Because let's face it — software can't impact the bottom line if it's not in customers' hands.
WillowTree's small, elite teams ship products faster, period. We minimize the time from ideas to outcomes — without sacrificing quality. And we do it in a way that puts partnership first.
Speed is quantifiable, and as such, we measure the productivity and delivery of our teams across every partner and every project.
It's a big part of what makes us different. And we're proud of the results.
Sourcing Talent from Around the World.
Our origins start in college towns — great places to live that attract great people. Put simply, high-impact tech work doesn’t just happen in high rent cities. To this day, we remain proudly headquartered in Charlottesville, VA.
As we built a global footprint — to tap unique sources of talent, to share efficiencies with our clients — we did so with one objective: to prove hybrid teams of onshore, nearshore, and offshore experts can deliver the agility, quality, and ROI associated with WillowTree since our founding in 2008. We’ve done just that, by approaching global delivery differently. A few highlights of our global model:
Optimize direct client collaboration by staffing, at a minimum, 30% of the team in-timezone (versus 10% from competitors)
Prevent communication breakdowns within teams via a 50% workday overlap, globally, with shared “Workday Windows”
Create stability in delivery with a culture that drives <10% attrition globally
Our core values.
Our core values are the seven principles by which we live and breathe every day. Developed with input by the entire company, they’re an integral part of our culture. Discover what sets WillowTree apart as an awesome place to work.
Craft: We aim for excellence, and our love for what we do compels us to reach a higher standard. You can be proud of the work you do here.
Ownership: We have a strong sense of individual responsibility. Every initiative has an owner, from major product strategy to curating which kombucha is on tap.
Open communication: We respect one another enough to give and receive honest feedback. We champion the best ideas, no matter where they originate.
Inclusion: We treat each other with consideration and respect, and we appreciate differences. You know, the way we want to be treated.
