Word on the street
Four Kitchens lives by their “people-first” approach, meaning they value individuals and interactions over processes and tools; customer collaboration over contract negotiation. This approach goes a long way to cementing client conversions and lasting business relationships. Clients note their smart methodology of working on the most important features of a development project first, and then moving rapidly to a first release in order to get products into customers’ hands ASAP.
“Attentive to every issue that pops-up,” and “Their team became part of our team,” are comments that accurately reflect their overall reputation as valued vendor in the software development space. This theme runs through from their clients to their employees, some of whom note that Four Kitchens promotes “a culture that focuses on a healthy work-life balance and values open-source and direction from their employees.”
