Published on 05/12/2021
COLORADO SPRINGS, Co., May 12, 2021 — Bluestaq LLC, an emerging tech company specializing in secure data management platforms and complex software solutions, has been named to Inc. magazine’s annual list of the Best Workplaces for 2021. Hitting newsstands May 18 in the May/June 2021 issue, and as part of a prominent Inc.com feature, the list is the result of a wide-ranging and comprehensive measurement of American companies that have created exceptional workplaces and company culture whether teams are operating in person or remotely.
“Despite a challenging year, our team doubled in size during an unprecedented global pandemic,” says Bluestaq Co-Founder and Chief Scientist Dave Rodvold. “The team-centric culture my partners and I established at Bluestaq on day one allowed our Bluestaq’rs to move ahead despite the extraordinary circumstances our team faced in 2020. It’s our people first culture that has earned Bluestaq this honor and we are ecstatic to be named to Inc. Magazine’s 2021 Best Workplaces List.”
“The definition of a positive workplace has changed drastically over the past year,” says Inc. magazine editor-in-chief Scott Omelianuk. “Stocked fridges and nap pods were no longer perks many companies could rely on once work went remote. So, this year’s list is even more important as it reveals organizations that continue to enrich the lives of its employees amid a pandemic.”
