I figured, why not start off the New Year with a blog about “Why I joined Turbonomic?”. We could end this blog in two sentences as answering the question “why” is relatively easy; the culture and passion. But I feel I need to dive deeper as this requires a bit of backstory on my previous experience working with Turbonomic that dates back to when I worked for AWS (Amazon Web Services).
Adding to our blog series on our company values, we wanted to get some perspective on our "performance culture" that sits at the core of how we operate and why we've grown so quickly. We caught up with Catherine Kellogg to get her thoughts on this value.

It’s not very common to find a workplace that allows you to be yourself - meaning that you can be transparent at work about your interests and hobbies outside of work. Bringing my authentic self to work hasn’t always been easy at past companies, but from time to time there are gems. For myself, I use to struggle with being open about my hobby of gaming – which might sound silly, but it did indeed have a bad connotation in many workplaces. It seemed like the days of tech company game culture had come and gone.
