Nearly 400 employees, 3 days, 10 "talent" show acts, 1 hackathon, more late-night chicken nuggets than we'd like to admit, and a whole lot of excitement for what's ahead.
Come build with us: lnkd.in/g329fQk2
Last week, the entire Baseten team came together in Chicago for our biannual company offsite.
Since the beginning, we've come together twice a year in different cities to connect and build together: talent shows, hackathons, customer conversations, and late-night karaoke sessions.
At one of our early offsites in 2022, there were 19 people. It's hard to imagine that now, with nearly 400 people (and counting), this is the last time we'll be this "small."
We're grateful to all the wonderful people who make Baseten's culture what it is today: fast, quality-obsessed, and deeply committed to our customers.
If you want to join us for the next one, we're hiring.

Pride feels different this year. We are coming off a year of isolation, one with stark reminders of injustice around the world. And yet we also rediscovered the power of community, even if from afar. figma.com/blog/pride-2021-ge…
