SEATTLE, May 16, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Cloudticity has been named one of Inc. Magazine's Best Workplaces for 2019, our fourth annual ranking in the fast-growing private company sector.
Hitting newsstands today in the June 2019 issue, and as part of a prominent Inc.com feature, the list is the result of a wide-ranging and comprehensive measurement of private American companies that have created exceptional workplaces through vibrant cultures, deep employee engagement, and stellar benefits. Collecting data on nearly 2,000 submissions, Inc. singled out 346 finalists.
Each nominated company took part in an employee survey, conducted by Omaha's Quantum Workplace, on topics including trust, management effectiveness, perks, and confidence in the future. Inc. gathered, analyzed, and audited the data. Then we ranked all the employers using a composite score of survey results. This year, 74.2% of surveyed employees were engaged by their work—beating last year's 72.1%.
The strongest engagement scores came from companies that prioritize the most human elements of work. These companies are leading the way in employee recognition, performance management, and diversity. It's a different playbook from a decade ago, when too many firms used the same template: free food, open work environments, and artifacts of "fun."
"At Cloudticity, culture is central to every decision, every conversation. It drives everything we do," said Gerry Miller, Founder & CEO. "We're grateful to be recognized for living our values and working in a principled way."
All companies had to have a minimum of 10 employees and be U.S.-based, privately held, and independent—that is, not subsidiaries or divisions of other companies.
While researching the finalists, Inc. and Quantum saw distinct themes:
