Philadelphia for tech?
I was a economics and finance major in school and my got a job at Bloomberg in Princeton as my first job. I learned a lot there and have a basic understanding of SQL and python. I was wondering what is the opportunity like in the Philadelphia area and if anyone has any companies I should consider. I see Comcast and that's about it.
Got SAP, Vanguard, Lockheed, Boeing, bunch of pharmaceuticals. Plus not far away in Wilmington are a bunch of large banks.
thank you for that information. Boeing and lockhead seems like something to look into not sure how advanced Vanguard or glaxo are interms of technology
yeah I was considering JPM , but I hear their technology infrastructure is way behind.
I'm from Lockheed. What kind of roles are you interested in?
i was thinking using SQL and python trying to move towards Hadoop those are the technologies I want to work with. I can Pm you if that is okay with you
Send me a PM
I just tried and it says I can't send you a PM for some reason. I'll try again tomorrow. Thank you for reaching out really appreciate it
Lot of healthcare in Philly (hospital systems, software vendors, IT consulting).
yep was considering a hospital (chop) but not sure how the culture is in those places. trying to get into a start up called healthverity.
I’m curious about this. Where is a good place to look for either Product or Program management positions? I’ve heard that the market if more about who you know.
Urban outfitters is there and definitely other smaller companies
