Getting great work done requires the leadership of individual contributors, not just managers.

In the world of engineering, a full-stack developer can be considered a jack of all trades, jumping into any part of the stack at any given time. As a result, it’s important for the individual in a full-stack developer role to harbor a solid knowledge base of the product in its entirety.

Genuine delivery, good timing and a two-way dialogue enhances its impact.

Here are the stories from nine employees at New York City-based companies, who explain the work culture, growth opportunities and fun projects they’ve been working on at their respective employer. 

Sales execs share the practices that have proven successful.

Built In NYC connected with five local sales leaders to learn which questions they find most effective in order to officially turn a prospect into a customer. They shared how asking questions through gathering key details, understanding prospects’ challenges, elevating conversations, figuring out what’s important and generating passionate and authentic responses enables them to move deeper into the sales process.

At market intelligence platform CB Insights, socializing and strategizing in an office was the ideal setting for living out the company’s core values, or five H’s: hard work, high standards, hunger, helpfulness and humility. 

The year may be coming to a close, but NYC tech startups never stop. 

How do engineers decide what tech to use to tackle their next project? And how do they stay on the cutting edge, evolving their tech stacks as new tools and trends emerge? We asked three NYC companies to find out.   

DECEMBER 2016: In the land of startups, getting into a company at just the right stage could land you a senior level position before you know it.

It’s usually the hiring manager asking the questions — but not in this case. We turned the tables and asked sales executives why a salesperson would want to join their team.

Companies often tout their internal growth opportunities but rarely do we hear directly from the employees who have climbed the leadership ladder. That’s why we connected with J.J. Schneider of CB Insights.

With more data available than ever before, the team is regularly adding more hands on deck to solve complicated data challenges using technology. We caught up with two employees to learn more about their expanding teams and the role they’ll play in the future at CB Insights.

As companies grow, the culture they initially worked so hard to create can begin to unravel — especially if that growth stretches across multiple offices.

Your next opportunity awaits.

We talked to seven client success managers and team leads to see what their employees are responsible for on a daily basis. And good news: they’re all hiring.

Python is one of the most popular programming languages in the world and, as such, those privileged few who have learned to master the language are in demand.

As CB Insights has grown in size, it has made sure its employees have grown with it helping them transition to different roles and move into leadership positions. We spoke to four employees about how they've grown with the company.

At CB Insights, engineers are often asked to do things they've never done before. It's not their job to know how to do everything, but they are expected to try. We spoke to three engineers at CB Insights to learn about how they help companies predict the future using data.  

We spoke with companies that offer employee development perks, and they’re getting increasingly creative with their initiatives.

CB Insights, a nearly seven-year-old company, analyzes millions of data points from across the internet on venture capital, patents, companies, partnerships and news mentions. As a leading resource for the venture capital, startup and technology communities, the company is growing at a fast clip.
