What are some social events your company does?

We have quarterly department offsites and an annual company-wide offsite. These are opportunities for us to work together in person, learn and brainstorm as a team, and generally, just hang out with each other in cool, new spots in Boston and throughout the US. Our last company trip to Denver was amazing!
