An Insider's view of Sisense

How would you describe the company’s work-life balance?

I've never had better work-life balance than I do here! We have a flexible hybrid work model that allows employees to take control of their own schedule. Sometimes I start my day late or schedule appointments around my meetings but then there are days I work until 8 or 9pm because I need to meet with Sisensers in APAC. I love the flexibility

Susanna

Global Diversity & Inclusion Manager

How has your career grown since starting at the company?

Coming from a smaller company, Sisense gave me the opportunity to work with a number of different tools and applications that I previously never had exposure to. My manager trusted me with projects that reached different areas of the business which allowed me to showcase what I’m truly capable of.

Dennis

Team Lead, IT Support

What is your vision for the company?

My vision for the company is to grow a diverse and professional community of builders who will moonshot their career and accelerate our growth. We strive to empower Sisensers to be their best selves and do their work!

Vicki

VP Culture & Communications

What kinds of technical challenges do you and your team face?

Delivering an effective BI solution requires data modelling, product customization, and our API to meet customer requirements. With quick access to dedicated R&D mission teams and loads of experience from colleagues, I know that everyone is committed to overcoming these technical hurdles, and this directly contributes to our customers' success.
