Starnik reviews

The new Director of Operations keeps things running smoothly and makes sure the sales team is organized and on track. The CEO and CTO want nothing more than the sales team to do well and to make sure they are happy and keeping up with expectations. The people are amazing to work with, very friendly and filled with recent Texas Tech graduates. The product is easy to sell because it is easy to believe in, the sales team is not cutthroat - if you are doing well, everyone is doing well. There is no competition. Commissions + salary.

I was excited to work at Starnik because I saw it as a place where I could learn a lot about software development in a short amount of time. I gained experience in multiple areas in less than a year. In the beginning I was doing software support calls. Taking support calls can be a challenge, but the troubleshooting skills I learned from it have helped me tremendously. You'll improve at listening to customers' issues and solving complicated problems on the fly. I really enjoyed doing Quality Assurance testing. It's always a race to be the first one to find an obscure bug. Another area I gained a lot of experience in was data migration and implementation. Customers coming from legacy software would provide their data in text files, and you had to figure out a way to get it into the system and maintain the integrity of the data. I even got to do a little business analysis and product design. I designed one report and the UI for a webpage in the software. I had coworkers who were very smart, hardworking, and helpful. Sometimes you'll need help from them, and other times you'll be the one helping. I work as a programmer now but being a solution analyst was beneficial.
