See how a team really works before you apply for a job
Roles change fast. what lasts is how a team works. So we at Genvalues launched TeamVibe that shows that, so you can choose better teams, faster, and teams can attract people who truly fit.
Why this matters
Job posts and career pages never tell you the real stuff:
who owns decisions, how work moves, how conflicts get solved, what “good” looks like. That’s what you want to know before they apply, refer, or join.
What TeamVibe is
A living profile for a team (not just a company). it makes the invisible parts of teamwork visible:
how decisions are made (speed vs safety, build vs buy, who decides)
how work gets shipped (from idea to done, review norms, release rhythm)
quality bar (what passes, what doesn’t, how debt or rework is handled)
how people work together (async/meetings, feedback style, conflict rules)
growth & learning (examples of real scope jumps)
non-negotiables (what we don’t do)
How anyone can use it
candidates: pre-screen a team in 2 minutes. if it matches your style, go deeper.
referrers & advisors: share a team link with context, not just a job ad.
hiring managers: show how you work so the right people self-select in.
founders & leaders: align the team around clear principles you actually use.
Quick guide: 7 questions to ask any team
copy these for your next interview or intro call (works for eng, product, design, data)
ownership — who decides when trade-offs get hard? recent example?
from idea to shipped — what are the steps? how long did the last one take?
learning — how did someone grow scope here in the last 6 months?
conflicts — how do you resolve product/tech or team disagreements? example.
pace — how often do you release? what changed after the last incident?
For leaders (kept simple)

share it publicly or privately if you’re in stealth. Run it with your ats or standalone.
