3 of the Best Places to Work in Durham

Looking to relocate to Durham? Unless you plan on working remotely, you’ll need a good job! Lucky for you, Durham and the Triangle at large have a thriving job market. With the nearby Research Triangle Park and a significant community of tech startups, it’s a great place to take the next step in your career.

But with so many choices, it pays to know the details: benefits, location, and other fun perks. If you’re looking for a job in Durham, these are some of the first places you should look!

ReverbNation

The Triangle is known for its great arts scene, and legendary venues like MotorCo and Cat’s Cradle have been hosting great music for decades. It’s from this environment that ReverbNation was created, a social networking site to connect independent musicians and producers.

Aside from the constant exposure to music and tech, one of the best perks of working at ReverbNation is its location. The corporate headquarters are in Brightleaf Square, one of Durham’s most desirable neighborhoods and close to some of the best bars and restaurants in town. You’ll also get frequent, free live performances from musicians!

Eco-Site

The thriving real estate market and rapid growth of the Triangle are the perfect environment for Eco-Site, a telecommunications company specializing in wireless infrastructure and tower development. Having already piloted a work-from-home program in 2019, it’s an especially great place to get a job during the pandemic.

When you do go into the office, you can count on year-round “lunch and learns,” stand-up desks, and a new headquarters specifically chosen to reduce employee commute time.

Oracle Bronto

The American Tobacco Campus is an enormous, multi-use facility built from a restored tobacco factory. It’s the best of old and new Durham, where towering brick smokestacks watch over startups and beer gardens. Naturally it’s a pretty cool place to work, and Oracle Bronto is one of the best ways in.

Originally an independent company, Bronto was purchased by Oracle in 2015. However the atmosphere of a small quirky startup is still very much alive, with a gorgeous office with exposed brick and vents, a treadmill desk, and weekly keg parties for employees.
