In a recent employee engagement survey one person said, “They build relationships, they get to know you personally as well as your family. They show that they care about you and your career, genuinely.” Another teammate is quoted, “I have worked for multiple organizations who perform the type of work we do. Some do not understand that the employees are the most important reason for their success or failure. Most do not provide recognition and rewards. Most do not recognize the importance of work / life balance or care about issues at home that employees must deal with to work. I could go on but will end by saying that my company is the only one who has exceeded every other company in every way including pay, benefits, genuinely caring about their people, and continuing to reward employees in every way.” If you are interested in a committed corporate partner designed to help innovate fresh solutions to tomorrow’s ever-changing technical needs or are a technologist with security clearance looking for a company to nurture you and your career, please connect with us via our website (https://www.intelliforce-itsg.com/) or directly at joinus@intelliforce-itsg.com.
