…I had started on a contract that sounded great on the surface, but after arriving, it was anything but. I spent a couple of months trying to get through it and not rock the boat with Artera and our prime. Once it came out that I wasn’t happy the only response Susan [President/CEO] had was, “I wish you had told me sooner.”

We create stunning visualizations that help our customers quickly gain insight into complex data structures. We’ve made it our mission to learn and apply tools and appropriate technologies for our client’s projects even if that means putting in extra work to master new skills.

From Our Employees

Still not convinced we put our employees first? Hear what a few of them have to say.

It’s great to be part of a company where you genuinely like every single person in that company. How many people get to say that and mean it? Artera is a close-knit team, where everyone’s opinion matters, and we all contribute to the company culture in a big way. It’s nice to have that amount of direct impact and control in shaping the company you are a part of.

When I interviewed with the company, I felt very comfortable, and I thought this would be a great place to work. I know that they were looking for what would be the best fit for my current goals and we found a match. It also helped that the benefits were extremely attractive.

Joining a small company can be daunting, but with Artera it has been such a great experience. Artera will regularly ask for your opinion on company benefits, growth, and events and they really listen. It is great knowing that I can have impact on things that are important to me. Susan works hard to make sure you are happy in your job. I had started on a contract that sounded great on the surface, but after arriving, it was anything but. I spent a couple of months trying to get through it and not rock the boat with Artera and our prime. Once it came out that I wasn’t happy the only response Susan had was “I wish you had told me sooner.” She put so much time and focus in getting me a new contract while rolling me off my current and within a month, I was in a new position and much happier.
