An Insider's view of ServiceNow

What’s the vibe like in the office?

The culture at this company is to take people's uniqueness, their superpowers — who they are at their core — and figure out how to raise them up for their benefit and the company's benefit.

Christine

Vice President of AMS Solution Consulting

What does your typical day look like?

If I could clarify one thing about being an engineer, we're a lot more collaborative than people think. Engineers can be seen as always sitting by themselves in front of a computer in a dark room and code just streaming down it. However, we work closely with project managers and designers to create the best product for customers.

Viviana

Senior Machine Learning Engineer

How does the company support your career growth?

My experience with Launchpad was humbling and eye-opening. I connected with many other early career individuals and discussed imposter syndrome. Being able to voice that and not feel alone in that feeling, I was like, "Wow. I don't have to know everything." There's still room for me to grow, and there's grace there.

Alexander

Diversity and Inclusion Analyst

How do your team's ideas influence the company's direction?

In this expanding hybrid world, people conduct millions of transactions on a regular basis, creating more data and processes to manage. So, continuing to offer new solutions, while scaling to the expectations of the modern world, is a challenge we are excited to take on. We are driving new levels of productivity, automation, and innovation.

Pat

Chief Technology Officer

What does career growth look like on your team?

Since joining ServiceNow, I've built out my leadership team, and 60% are women. My goal for my team is to create opportunities and a platform to showcase the incredible impact that they're having on the business, whether that's having them lead a critical initiative with cross-functional visibility or present during a C-suite meeting.
