Why Choose to Work With Seven Cycles
What makes Seven such a special bike-building company to work with? After all, on paper, there are dozens of companies that look similar. We believe the list that makes Seven compelling as an employee is long and diverse. Here are a few examples that may be captivating for you:
- Experience and History: Seven's founder team has been working in the framebuilding industry for more than three decades. Some of our key employees have been with us for more than 30-years, too. We don't think there is a custom bike builder with anywhere close to the depth of experience we have. There are dozens of reasons why it's compelling to come work side by side with builders and business people with so much experience.
- Mentors and Teachers: Our lead framebuilding and management team have well over 150 years of industry experience. You'll learn the framebuilding and business trade from the most experienced builder-mentors on the planet.
- Unique opportunity: We've been called the framebuilder's builder because we've taught dozens of builders that have gone on to start their own businesses. Working at Seven can be a lot more than just a job if you have aspirations to build frames on your own some day. Learn from the most seasoned team in the industry.
- Innovation: Some of us at Seven have been building innovative bike designs for more than 35 years. Our list of industry firsts goes on and on. If you'd like to play a role in the next 35 years of bike innovation, Seven may be the right company for you.
- Making a Living: While a person can make more money working in the defense industry or the insurance industry, there can be a lot more to making a LIVING than just the paycheck. Living is about quality of life. For some, it includes how we treat the world. For some, it's how we make a difference in the world. We believe that Seven offers better wages, benefits, and quality of life than any other custom bike builder and many other companies.
- Location: We love eastern Massachusetts. Set in the heart of New England, Seven is about 10 minutes away from the historic city of Boston. We have the Atlantic ocean 30 minutes to our east. We have amazing mountains 90 minutes to our north. We have beautiful woods everywhere. We have four seasons, and we're pretty sure that humans are designed to experience four seasons. And we have well over 100 universities and colleges in the area, making Boston a "world leader in higher education." This number of smart, inquisitive students provides firtile ground for bike innovation and creative thinking.
