Employee Testimonial

Hilary
Hilary S.
InfoPath Developer
“I love working with such knowledgeable people who are willing to *share* what they know - that is so rare! Too often knowledge is commodified and used as means of power or exchange within an organization. At Qdabra, the team shares its thoughts and insights, always giving freely. I feel as if help is an email or Skype call away, and I know that out of all the cumulative years of experience, someone will be able to get me unstuck. I love feeling like the people I work with care about how I do, and that they are willing to make the investment to help me become a better developer.”
