From Startup to Emerging Company. Join Skytap on the Journey.
In the recent Glassdoor.com article, Do You Have What It Takes To Work At A Startup? Steve Roberson, CEO and co-founder of StartUpHire, was quoted as saying, “Job seekers that should consider working for a startup also need to possess determination, passion and a real drive to want to make a difference in the organization and potentially the industry or community.” We couldn't agree more. And while some in the industry rightfully talk about the risks associated with working for a startup, Skytap is in a unique position. We are more of a high growth, emerging company than a startup. So working here offers a bit more stability than a bootstrap venture. But at Skytap, we still embrace the entrepreneurial spirit of a startup company, and have created a fast moving, high impact work environment where everyone is in a position to excel.
Listen to what some of our team members have to say about their experiences at Skytap:
"There are three reasons why I love working at Skytap. First: The team we work with is top notch. Every person at the company is the best in their field and brings tremendous experience. You'll be surrounded by the best and be pushed to work your hardest. Second: We blend the best of all enterprise technology and software into a killer service. This means you're on the cutting edge of technology with the ability to define what’s next. You will also gain a broad knowledge on all technology so you won't be pigeon-holed. Third: We have a lot of fun doing what we do." – Alex Burreson, Sales Manager, U.S. West.
"The great thing about working at Skytap is the opportunity to really make a difference to the product and the company. If you have good ideas and are willing and able to make them happen, there really isn’t a better place you can be." – Pete Holland, Software Architect – Networking.
"One of the things I really like about Skytap is the amazing tight-knit team feel. Skytap is a living, breathing organism, and the main reason that this thing is able to grow and thrive is because every last person here really believes in the product, and puts forth that extra effort to make sure everything is done to the best of our ability. This is a dynamic work environment in which I am continually learning and applying new concepts and processes, and am encouraged to think outside the box to ensure customer success." – Dan Glasser, Support Engineer.
