Working at Qred gives us a unique opportunity to hear the stories of everyday heroes: small business owners. It means the world to me to use my experience and expertise to assist my clients with their needs
Qred bet on me during my internship and gave me a permanent employment. We were about 10 people back then, and are nearly 40 today. It has been so fun to be a part of the fast growing journey!
I joined Qred around Easter 2018 and the atmosphere at the office really stood out in a positive way. Days are full of conversations with entrepreneurs and there is always something new to learn.
Qred is family so being at work really doesn’t feel like working. To be around people who always encourage you to do your best is really motivating and we always have a lot of fun - in and out of the office.
