I’m not positive if I’m putting up this in the proper area, but I am preparing to transfer to the U . S . and am attempting to secure employment in the technology field. I have a job lead with a enterprise (LTJ Management, LLC, 900 Congress Ave, Suite L-150, Austin, TX 78701 (512) 895-9500) and sought some ideas on the best way to research them to discover if they will be a great organization to work for. I’ve searched on their web page, but thought someone here may have some other tips on where to look. Thank you.
