TeraTech Culture

TeraTech, with our milieu of expert programmers and developers, is able to solve complex problems with grace and speed.  We are on the forefront of ColdFusion development, constantly contributing to the CF community with training, tips and tricks, as well as conferences.  Since the 1989 inception, we have made a name for ourselves as the people to turn to when your business is in a web crisis. How did we get here?

President and Co-Founder, Michaela Light had a vision of a company that would treat its customers and employees alike, striving to be a company founded upon mutual respect and honesty; happy employees beget happy clients, and happy clients beget happy owners. 

He realized, as many programmers know, that “some of the best code is written at night.”  A 9-5 culture that does not utilize the times developers work best is ineffective, so the first thing instilled in the 1989 birth of TeraTech was that hours were adjustable based on the developer.  More often than not, these hours overlap into the 9-5 workday, but employees have the ability to stay working into the wee hours of the night when they are busting out good code. 

To further ensure happy workers, TeraTech holds communication at the apex of importance.  We deal with problems head on, and feel the best way to fix a problem is to get all the information out in the open.  It may be brash, but it is for the sake of long term sanity.  If a problem goes on unchecked simply because people are afraid of another’s reaction, productivity drops and we are bogged down when really all that time worrying could have been spent fixing the problem.  And that is what TeraTech does best; we fix problems when your servers are in pain.
