Checkly’s DEI mission statement:
Central to our work in the DEI space is Checkly’s ideology of creating delightful experiences. We want to be delightful in our work and workspace, diversity and inclusion are core to building blocks in this philosophy.

This requires a culture of inclusion where all individuals feel respected, are treated fairly, are provided work-life balance, and an opportunity to excel in their chosen careers.
Creating a diverse and inclusive culture is not only the right thing to do, it is also the smart thing to do. It leads to improved financial performance, talent management, innovation, and team performance, as well as customer representation.*
