Amazing Culture in the Silicon Slopes
Pros
Big Squid operates like a big family. I hear it all the time, and I agree, people love coming to the office because we all love the people. That's not a characteristic you find in business very frequently. While we all have specific titles, we all take responsibility for the mission of the company--meaning we wear many hats at times, we stretch ourselves beyond what's comfortable, and we play very impactful roles in driving the growth of the company that we're all looking to achieve. A core value of our company is to drive career growth in the organization. Everyone here is learning all the time. I love that. Data Science and Predictive Analytics is all the rage in the analytics and BI space right now and Big Squid is on the bleeding edge of this insane evolution in business practices. Fast forward 5 years and those organizations who are winning in their sectors will be using predictive everywhere in their business. Big Squid is at the forefront of this evolution.
Cons
We work hard to play hard and at times we work harder than we play. But that's where we are as a company right now. If you are looking for a 9-5 coast your way through a hi-tech job this isn't the place for you. But if you want to ride a rocket ship into a data/analytics revolution, you won't find this level of effort a con.
