Our bright and shiny new office!

When Flywheel first started, we were just a few people in a coworking space. In 2014, we hit a major milestone and moved into our very own downtown office. At the time, the 10 employees that made up Flywheel couldn’t imagine ever outgrowing our one-floor headquarters. But as you’ve probably noticed, we’ve done a LOT of growing over the last couple years – meaning our office needed to grow, too! Over the past year, we transformed...

April showers bring new Flywheelers!

We hired seven new friends to work at Flywheel, so after training was complete, one of our first orders of business was to get the whole company together for a little happy hour. This gives us a chance to get to know our new teammates a little better, and an excuse to eat lots and lots of guacamole! Here are some of the fun facts we learned about each of them: Austin Moehlenhoff Can you tell us...

We got some fun insight, and we know you’ll be ready to join our troop after reading their responses! First we talked to Keegan, who started at Flywheel as a project management intern. She worked with the development...

The significant seven February hires!

It’s been a while since our last new hire class started, so we thought it was time to add to the Fly Family. We asked them a few questions to help us get to know them, and we cannot help but share! Alex O’Neill, Inside Sales Representative Can you tell us a little about yourself? I grew up in the small town of Wakefield, Nebraska. I enjoyed playing a number of different sports, but basketball and...

We heart designers…and each other!

We really use any excuse to celebrate, and for Valentine’s Day, we decided to propel the Fly Fam back to the past. We took the party back to our elementary roots with homemade valentines, mail-pails on every desk, candy strewn about the office, and decorative hearts hung all over the kitchen! As 9 o’clock came and the team rolled in for their morning coffee, they discovered the crafting station and got to work on all...
