Couchbasers Around The World – UK Edition

David Haikney, a UK-based employee at US-headquartered Couchbase, shares his experiences working in a culturally diverse environment, highlighting the quirks and nuances between British and American cultures. He humorously discusses differences in date formats, spellings, pronunciations, and even culinary preferences, such as the definition of "bacon." Despite these differences, Haikney emphasizes the company's commitment to shared goals and values, which focus on action, integrity, and transparency. He praises Couchbase's proactive approach, contrasting it with other companies that tend to stall in decision-making. Haikney's initial skepticism about the company's values has faded as he recognizes their genuine impact, although he humorously notes ongoing cultural misunderstandings, particularly with pronunciations. Having worked for Couchbase for seven years, Haikney lives in Manchester, England, and enjoys football and jokingly claims to be a fan of all US sports.
