Our birthday celebrations are still going strong!

And what a fantastic way to mark the occasion! Our team in Utah had a blast at Top Golf, making memories to commemorate another incredible year. Meanwhile, our colleagues in India, Montreal, Spain, Pennsylvania, and Florida gathered to celebrate together.

It's great to see everyone coming together to celebrate our 15th year!

In honor of Anglepoint’s 15th birthday, we talked to a few of our archers about their experience with us.

The first archer we’re highlighting is Kevin Rieske, Vice President of Anglepoint. Kevin has been with us for 12 years, seeing Anglepoint through our early years, our present, and our future.

Here’s what Kevin shared with us:

In a few sentences, please share a favorite memory of Anglepoint:

First week on the job, I remember going to purchase our first conference table (which looks oddly close to a pool/ping pong table). I remember getting to Sears only to find out that the mail add forgot to mention if we wanted the table to have legs that those were sold separately (2X the cost). Ron and I were disappointed as Ravi’s pocket book would probably not approve this additional cost. Kris wasn’t having any of it and showed the ad to the salesperson stating that the one in the add has legs along with the sales price without mentioning any additional price for legs. After a few rounds with managers about false advertising, approvals were granted and we were leaving with COSI’s (later named Anglepoint) first pool table. Actually, the first permanent furniture of the Utah office (as the desks still had not arrived).

Tell us what you love most about working at Anglepoint and your WHY for giving your all and being here:

People. Godfather of SAM, Ron Brill & part man / part cyborg, Kris Johnson made me take a leap of faith to come to a small company (1 Client). Their vision of creating a SAM industry was simply too good to pass up. Anglepoint Strong!

What's your Anglepoint "birthday wish"?

I wish Anglepoint a long lasting and successful future, however WE choose to help define that success.
