Around this time each year, it seems that our thoughts naturally tend turn toward the things we're thankful for. Whether it's the holiday season, the end of another trip around the sun, or something else entirely, we spend a little more time than usual reflecting on the good we've been lucky enough to experience.

This year, one of the things I'm thankful for is the time we spent together at the 2023 TUNE Retreat.

After the buzz of last year's retreat, we knew that getting our team together annually was an important part of TUNE culture. For 2023's event, we decided to get out of the PNW and venture south to the desert of Palm Springs for some warmer weather and much-needed vitamin D.

As we have continued to refine our remote-first workplace, the need for a unified TUNE culture has only intensified. These annual retreats offer a unique setting for team members to interact, share best practices, and get in-person time with the people we work with every day. There is no replacement for being able to meet face-to-face and solve real problems together.
