The Rocket.Chat's Handbook contains all the information on how we run the company, our core values, team member onboarding, our policies, and much more. |
{% hint style="info" %} We know it's practically impossible to go through all of it in a single run, so make sure to check our policies from time to time as well as your area's specific documents. {% endhint %}
This Handbook will always be a work-in-progress, and it is everyone's responsibility to keep it up-to-date and relevant.
You are encouraged to update the processes your team or the whole company uses. If your area does not have a section in the menu, go ahead and create one. If you notice some procedures have changed from what's been written, suggest a change.
Rocket.Chat is open by default. This means that unless something is explicitly prohibited from going public, it should be public. Examples of protected information are employee individual compensation and customer contracts.
To create or edit pages within the Handbook, you will need to login to Gitbook. If you don't have an account, send a message to Marcelo Schmidt to get an invitation link.
