What’s next? Who knows? But, it’s going to be innovative...and it’s going to be fun to build!
Inspiring Culture
What if your work environment was buzzing with positive energy? What if the people you worked with expressed genuine interest in you, in your well-being, and in your personal and professional success? What if you came to work and knew you could be yourself because your managers and co-workers valued you just the way you are - and valued your work because you put your heart and soul into it? What if you felt empowered to make your own decisions, motivated to expand your thinking, encouraged to share creative suggestions, and supported in doing your very best work? What if you were as proud of your company as you were of your contributions to it?
We’re not sure if our great people created our amazing culture, or if our amazing culture attracted our great people - it’s probably some of both. What we do know is that our people love coming to work - and they do great work because they’re happy. If you’re happy; if you’re self-motivated; if you’re great...get your butt over here!
Dreamy Location
One thing we all have in common here at APPROVE is that we place a very high value on quality-of-life. We work to live, not live to work! That’s one of the reasons we chose to build our business in Wilmington, NC. Here are just a few reasons we call Wilmington, “Heaven on Earth":
Downtown Wilmington, where our office is located, has a really cool vibe. The city sits on the bank of the Cape Fear River and oozes friendly, authentic, southern charm. There are plenty of restaurants, breweries, shops and art galleries within easy walking distance of the office.
Just minutes away from downtown are some of the nation’s most beautiful beaches and coastal towns. If you like swimming, surfing, fishing, boating, paddle boarding, or just sunbathing with your toes in the sand, you’re going to like it here - because we are all about coastal living on island time.
