Snowflake started with a clear vision: make modern data warehousing effective, affordable, and accessible to all data users.

Put Customers First. We only succeed when our customers succeed

Integrity Always. Be open, honest, and respectful

Think Big. Be ambitious and have big goals

Be Excellent. Quality and excellence count in everything we do

Get It Done. Results matter!

Own It

Make Each Other the Best

Embrace each others Differences
