About Integrative Systems:

We are a reputable 20+-year-old software development and back-office optimization firm based in Chicago with clients for Microsoft applications (desktop, web, and mobile), IBMi, JDA MMS, and BPCS throughout North America and Canada. We have an exceptional work culture that is vibrant, and performance-driven – A workplace that youwill aspire to be a member of. We proactively work towards creating an environment – wherein every associate is incentivized to think independently; bring to bear diverse and dynamic resources to resolve complex problems collaboratively. And most importantly, understand the meaning and growth in their work. We work with a belief that everyone associated with Integrative should grow professionally and personally. Therefore, we seek out what's best for our co-workers. We strive to create a workplace that 100 people would absolutely love, not a place that 1000 people kind of like. To achieve this, we try to create job experiences, not job opportunities. We know the importance of adding the 'FUN' in 'business fundamentals' at the right time - yet are a well-disciplined, profitable, well-oiled engine of growth. So, when we hire new talent, we lookout for someone who can balance work-life easily. We hire only the best. For a typical position, we sift through one hundred resumes and interview at least ten people. Make it in, and you'll be working with some of the best minds in the business. We understand that 'A' people attract 'A' people. We do not ride on anything short-term - no short-term market trends, short-term profits, or any short-cuts. Hence, we look for talent who usually believes in stability and commitment more than short-term benefits. We understand that when a person joins, he/she brings in various dimensions of their being - physical, emotional, social, mental, and spiritual aspects to the workplace, not just vocational. And because we address all these dimensions for every associate's wellbeing, we create an environment that fosters optimism, mindfulness, authenticity, belongingness, meaning, and vitality.
