Alabama Business Spotlight: Millennial-Friendly Organization with National Awards

By Lauren Naumcheff

Many organizations today are having a tough time interacting with the new generation of individuals entering the workforce: millennials. Members of this generation have a different set of needs and desires for their work environments than previous generations, and often get a bad rap for this. However, one Hunstville-based business has stood out for its ability to engage millennials and help them reach their potential.

Intuitive Research and Technology Corporation (INTUITIVE) is an Alabama based business that was named in the top 100 best workplaces for millennials by Fortune in 2015. The company is an award-winning aerospace, engineering, and analysis firm dedicated to finding unique, hands-on approaches to production support, systems engineering, product development, rapid prototyping, and technology management. Its customers include the Department of Defense, government agencies, and commercial companies.

“I believe our open door policy has helped management understand the needs and desires of our millennial-aged workforce. We understand the importance of creating a work environment suited for all of our employees; the well-being of our employees reflects on our long-term success and that of our clients. INTUITIVE is lucky to have such a talented group of young professionals who are excited and dedicated to their work,” said Harold Brewer, President of INTUITIVE.

Founded in 1999, INTUITIVE was created to provide exceptional engineering services and technical support based on ethical practices, specialized experience and team collaboration. INTUITIVE has made it a priority to recruit top-notch talent, and credits the Alabama education system for providing a strong pool of talented candidates that meet industry standards.

INTUITIVE’s presence in Alabama impacts much more than millennials looking for a workplace where they express innovative ideas and contribute to ongoing projects. The company is a major source of revenue and direct employment to the state and issues multiple subcontracts to firms in Alabama. It was ranked in the Top 100 Defense Contractors the Washington Technology Journal.

INTUITIVE was strategically established in Huntsville because the city is a technology base for the aerospace and defense industry as well as home to many of its customers’ offices. Alabama’s business-friendly environment and economic development incentives has bolstered the company’s ability to maintain steady growth since its inception.

With regards to future plans, Rey Almodóvar, INTUITIVE’s CEO, said, “Our goal is to continue branding INTUITIVE as a nationally known and admired company. We are strategically positioned to continue our managed growth and remain as the premier place for employment and a trusted community partner.” The company has demonstrated its ability to reach these goals through its many achievements.


For more than three decades, the Business Council of Alabama has been Alabama’s foremost voice for business, standing up for Alabama businesses that are the job creators and innovators driving our state’s economy. Through this Business Spotlight Series, the BCA tells the stories of these businesses that proudly call Alabama home and in the process, we hope to show why we work hard every day making a sweet home for business.
