Love Where You Work

We’re proud to be a Tennessean Top Workplace, an award based on employee feedback that recognizes companies with a people-first culture. Check out what our team has to say about what makes ISTS a great place to work!

“ISTS is a great place to find the best version of your professional self. The culture allows for difference of perspective, skillset, and experience, and core values ensure that aspiration is rewarded with opportunity. We are a growing company, which means our goals are never small or uninteresting, and I would recommend ISTS to anybody who feels ready to join the effort to transform our company.”

“This team sees people as people. Leadership understands the needs of people to fit their lives around work and their work around their lives. I think it would be very difficult to find anywhere that takes people’s personal needs into considerations as much as ISTS, with our PTO policies, flexible scheduling, and personal approach to leadership.”

“ISTS is a place for growth and transformation. For those who want to continue to challenge themselves, learn daily and contribute to a dynamic team, ISTS provides an ideal remote work environment. ISTS has solid Core Values and wants to “give back” to the community at large by participating in many volunteer activities.”

“I really feel valued as an employee. Not only because of how much this company gives back to their employees, but also my teammates and peers always go out of their way to offer encouragement and really just make everyone feel valued. The work is hard sometimes, but having a strong support system with both my immediate team members and leadership helps the hard days not feel so bad.”
