Evoke Technologies

We work out of B 1 in the Mariner Block. It’s one of those big office buildings where you have to use a badge to get through the doors. At Evoke Technologies, we have a bunch of rows of desks and everyone is usually wearing headphones, deep into their own tasks. The Mariner Block is a bit of a maze if you aren't used to it. We have a small break area where we drink way too much coffee and talk about things that aren't work-related. The air conditioning is always a bit too cold, so most of us keep a sweater at our desks even in the middle of summer. It’s a very tech-heavy environment, lots of wires and monitors everywhere you look. We aren't really the type to have long, boring meetings for no reason. Instead, we just walk over to someone's desk and ask them what’s going on. The view outside isn't much, just other buildings and the parking lot, but it’s a solid place to get things done. We have people from all over working here, so the lunchroom always has some interesting smells. It’s a professional setup, but we keep it casual. Nobody wears a suit unless they absolutely have to. Most of the time, we’re just trying to solve problems and get through the day’s tasks. It’s a steady rhythm that seems to work well for us. We stay focused on the systems we are building.
