Engineer Support

  • 8 DECENT WORK AND ECONOMIC GROWTH

In order to provide number one services and to make our customers smile and inspire them, the GMO Internet Group utilizes its technological strength to create its own services from scratch.

As stated in the Venture Spirit Declaration, which embodies the spirit in which the company was founded, "to remain number one, it is essential to maintain an environment and systems that nurture our engineers and creative professionals in order to cultivate technological expertise."

As part of this effort, we created a series of support systems and programs under the "GMO Cool Engineer System," directed at motivating each engineer and creator to increase their technological strengths and develop excellent services.
