How To Promote Remote Employee Collaboration & Engagement
“As we’ve transitioned to being mostly remote in the past year, this one hits close to ‘home’ (pun intended). It’s nice to see there’s some things we’re getting right, and also some tips from the article we haven’t tried yet that we could use to improve our remote work culture.”

How To Stay On Top of Tech
“In today’s ever changing world, technology is something most businesses should be paying attention to. Businesses relying on old outdated software/hardware get left out when clients come with expectations of supporting newer tech. For me, it is more true with the work I have to do in QA. On a daily basis, reading about what is happening in the Tech World not just Apple, is important to understanding changes happening. This is one way I keep up on the new beta’s or updates for macOS/iOS. I am able to update/test our apps and also be alerted to changes that could affect our customers.”
– Sean Mendonca, QA Engineer

Just one more reason to Go Cloud!”
