Whether it is companywide weekly knowledge shares, biweekly continuing education sessions led by fellow CS members, guild participation , or free online trainings, there is always somewhere to turn for technical and professional growth.
  • Culture: Appian's customer success group is quickly expanding but the culture continues to make the department feel like a small community.
