The better way to work in finance means investing in our people—and that includes onboarding our new hires. Last week, our newest Accordionites spent two packed onboarding days at our NYC HQ, hearing the Accordion story from our C-Suite so that they’re ready to write their own chapters.

Happy 4th! This year, we celebrated with both America’s pastime (baseball) and Accordion’s pastime (spending time together). Enjoy the day, everyone!
