While it is a small organization I believe that their size leads to a very distinct culture. First, the two managing partners, John and Matt include me on all of their phone calls with companies and other investment firms. They made it very clear to me that one of the things they feel I can learn the most from is these phone calls that they have everyday where they talk about things like financing and different deals that they are making. This open communication has led to me having a high level of understanding of the position our firm is in and what types of deals we are pursuing.<\/p>\n<p>On top of the open communication at HCPI, I have also enjoyed the informal nature of the communication. My two bosses are best friends and thus there has always been a very welcoming and informal style of communication around the office. This has led to a comfortable work environment where we are always bouncing ideas and questions off of one another.<\/p>\n<p>The last cultural observation that I have witnessed thus far is in regard to how hard working everyone is. This seems obvious, but it was definitely something that was apparent to me right away. While this is not especially unique, I think that the level of appreciation and acknowledgement that John and Matt show towards hard work is unique. Overall, I think that the culture of open, casual communication and appreciation is what sets HCPI\u2019s culture apart.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This past week, I began to notice different aspects of the organizational culture at HCPI.
