Celebrating John Reid’s 10-Year Pepperversary
Congratulations to John Reid on 10 incredible years at Eleven Peppers!
For 10 years, John Reid has brought unwavering dedication, deep mission expertise, and a rare blend of UX, design, and cybersecurity skills to every team he touches. Known for his loyalty, resilience, and ability to seamlessly “talk the talk” with developers, analysts, and customers alike, he’s become a trusted go-to problem solver who elevates every project he joins. Outside of work, he’s a music lover with enviable playlists, a foodie famous for his smoked brisket, and a car and golf enthusiast with the tiniest, neatest handwriting you’ve ever seen.
To make it extra special, we used intel from the Peppers who know him best! For example, we learned that:
-
He has season tickets to the Baltimore Ravens.
-
He grew up on a large farm on the eastern shore and knows a lot about farming and growing produce.
-
He plays golf almost every weekend, is in a league, and even travels a few times a year for tournaments.
-
His dream car would be a Totem Automobili GT Super.
We also sent out a survey about John, and this is some of the feedback we received:
-
“John is really skilled in a lot of areas. He is creative and technical all in one, has an incredible depth of knowledge on what his clients do, and altogether is a really valuable member of the team.”
-
“Lots of great memories of him bringing over enough pork and brisket to feed 50 people but there’s only 3 of us eating it. So, we do…for about a week.”
-
“My husband and I have been besties with John Reid for a real, real long time so coming up with one favorite memory is difficult. He’s pretty much a family member at this point and our third wheel.”
-
“My favorite memory was the first time I met him in person! He was so easy to talk to and I knew immediately he would be an awesome fit at Eleven Peppers.”
-
“My favorite memories are whenever he tried to teach me all the current slang – my favorite was when he was trying to explain “mid” to me.”
-
“John attends all the company events. I have fond memories of his attendance and unwavering support of our company from its early infancy stages to today.”
John, your blend of dedication, mastery, and true Pepper spirit elevates everything you’re part of. Here’s to more creative wins, perfectly smoked brisket, and a future as solid as your playlists!
