QUOTES
Here are some quotes from some of our employees about the work they do and why the love to work for Telmate:
“We do a huge range of work, from JavaScript based applications like kiosks running ADL, user interface in html and flash, to operating system (Ubuntu and Cents), to hardware integration, and proprietary devices using custom-made mother boards.”
“We work with telephony technologies such as Asterisk and AEL, which brings a whole new set of interesting and complex problems to solve. All that plus some fast-paced end-to-end ruby and web development”
“We use SCRUM and pair-programming – I wouldn’t want to write code under any other condition!”
“It’s a creative environment where I can continuously broaden my toolbox/skillset, giving me a different perspective and new approaches to problems.”
“I like that we’re not trying to trick customers into clicking our ads or selling their information; what we do makes a difference out there.”
“We have variety – we build open source, we build giant data clusters, we refine touch screen UIs, tweak MP3 recording quality, train voice-to-text agents, all in the same day.”
“Our competitors are mega corporations who gouge our clients on fees; we out-smart them and out-class, every day, then deliver quality and affordable products.”
“We are very successful, but still small enough that you can own a project and make a difference.”
“We are a mature, stable, fast-growing start-up. That makes for a fast-paced, exciting, safe work/career environment.”
