Bottle Rocket Named Among Top 100 Places to Work by The Dallas Morning News
Dallas, TX (PRWEB) November 12, 2015 -- Bottle Rocket has been recognized as one of the Top 100 Places to Work in 2015 by The Dallas Morning News, marking the third year the Dallas-based app development company has received this honor.
The Top 100 list is a nomination-based program. Thousands of companies are nominated each year and confidential employee surveys are analyzed by a third-party research partner to determine the rankings. To qualify as a Top 100 company, at least 35% of a company’s employees must respond to the survey.
“We’re honored to be recognized for our passionate and forward-thinking workplace,” says Bottle Rocket CEO, Calvin Carter. “Bottle Rocket is the type of place where you can do the best work of your life, and we work hard to hire and retain passionate people that are the best at what they do. We are a team of dreamers, thinkers, makers and doers with a relentless passion for pushing the limits.”
Carter also states that the company strives to maintain an atmosphere full of life. Keeping this goal in mind from the start, Bottle Rocket invests heavily in their interviews, testing not only for skill but also emotional intelligence. From this, Bottle Rocket is able to attract candidates who are not only talented, technical and creative, but people who love what they do.
Employees, or Rocketeers, run a committee called LIFT, with the sole mission of shaping and maintaining the ideal culture, work environment and employee programs to support the company’s mission. Personal and professional development opportunities include weekly training sessions, certification programs, music lessons, UX week, and an annual hackathon where employees have 24 hours to ideate and physically or digitally bring their ideas to life.
