SkillStorm at
skillstorm.comThe latter will honor Miller – thrilled by the recognition – and
other top performers with an all-expense-paid trip to Costa Rica.
Nearby are two of the company’s newest Stormers: recruiters
Zach Ashton and Chiara Schum.
Floating above Ashton’s work station is a black and white striped
helium balloon. It carries one word: Celebrate. He’d joined the team
one week prior.
“Everybody is friendly,” he comments. “It’s laid back. You don’t
have to feel self-conscious about asking for help.”
Peers also extended Schum, an employee since February, a
heartfelt reception.
“Brian likes people to start on Fridays, “she recalls. “Everybody
was really welcoming and feels like family already.”
‘Hybrid of opportunity’
Technical recruiter Scott Adams carefully chooses his words when
voicing his affection for SkillStorm.
“If I had to sum it up in a phrase, the thing that sold me on this
company was the ‘hybrid of opportunity’ that’s there and the rewards
that come along the way,” he reflects. “You’re not siloed into a pre-
defined track. They allow you to make it what you want it to be.”
Moments later, applause erupts as Harris unveils one last surprise.
“I have an LTCV (Living the Core Values) award!” he proclaims,
heading straight for Vinnie Pellecchia. With the company for just over
a year, he’s already been promoted to team lead recruiter.
Grinning as Harris walks away, Pellecchia shares a final thought.
“He’s probably the best boss I’ve ever worked for. It’s nice when
you go to work and you have a boss that’s obviously on you for
production, but also cares about you on a personal level.”

“We’ve got to make sure we’re working our tails off, but at the same
time, we’re going to have fun doing it,” remarks executive vice president
