AI coding startup Cognition (the maker of Devin) recently hosted a company-wide offsite. As the company scales rapidly and establishes multiple global hubs, the team gathered everyone together to maintain culture, align on strategic priorities, and foster in-person connections.
Due to headcount growing faster than anticipated, accommodations reached full capacity. Ultimately, hundreds of employees ended up camping in tents, with leadership joining them, demonstrating the team's relentless problem-solving attitude and execution.
