COMPETENCIES:

Cultural

Fulfillment at work most often occurs when personal values align with those of the organization. Protomet associates its collective character with the following traits:

Second Mile

• The first mile is mandatory. The second mile is voluntary; we do it for our own growth. Outsized benefits are realized in the second mile.

Dont Touch the Marshmallow

• The strength to reject short term gratification in favor of a larger reward later. We err towards celebrating later, not sooner.
