Each year, Built in Colorado, the online hub of the Colorado tech industry, selects the 100 Best Places to Work in Colorado based on data submitted by companies and their employees.

Pie fosters its unique culture in many ways—providing team members with benefits both inside and outside of the office walls. These include offering modern workspaces, comprehensive health plans, and a “piece of the pie” (equity) to employees. “One of the best things about working for Pie is how quickly we can go from ideation to delivery,’” says Mark Rogers, Engineering Team Lead. “There’s not a lot of red tape, and my team has the opportunity to create solutions in an encouraging and innovative environment.”
