While Slingshot is still working on getting the office ready for our team, we wanted to show you some of the cool data we pulled from our Return to Work surveys.
This month we're speaking with Paul Ford: an insurtech expert who has several startups under his belt.
We'll discuss exposure to entrepreneurs, corporate burnout, learning and working for who you are, finding direction vs having a plan, Louisville's authenticity, relinquishing control, life's escalator, keeping your clarity, and writing your own story.
This Pride Month, we’d like to discuss how gender identity impacts data collection (specifically in our Research phase) and the best practices on how to be mindful of the queer community during interviews.

Since March 16th, 2020, Slingshot has been operating almost 100% remote (Well, we do have one of our 3 Chris's still holding down the fort. How’s the office, Chris?).

When user testing is brought up, there is sometimes push back: why would you want to spend time and money up front when you already know what you need? In our experience (all 16 years of it 😉), we’ve seen quite the opposite: you don’t know for sure what users need until you test with them.
Our team of developers have a wide range of expertise's and personalities. Each one had a different journey to get to where they are. Whether you’re an aspiring developer, or you’re looking to learn more about who we are, here’s a look into some of our development squad.
