We aren't a startup (we're 20 years young), and we aren't a Fortune 1000 company. We're in the sweet spot: big enough to compete for any client in our target market and small enough to be nimble and not bogged down by corporate bureaucracy.

Culture is incredibly important to us and to you. Really. Everybody says they have a great culture, but unfortunately, it doesn't always mean it's true. We think intensely about our culture. Does that mean ours is perfect? It's not, but what it does mean is that we talk and strategize about it constantly and hold a very high bar for teamwork and our values, making Fidelus an exceptional and fun place to work. Why? Because it benefits you and our clients.

Fidelus is a best-in-class technology solutions provider. Our clients are a who's who in some of the most demanding environments like large legal and healthcare organizations. Do they love us? Well, you decide: our Net Promoter Score (NPS) is a whopping 70 vs. the industry average of 37!

Thursday through Sunday 6:30 PM - 4:00 AM
