Certinia Named To Newsweek’s List Of The Top 100 Global Most Loved Workplaces For 2023

Certinia Ranked #2 Among 100 Global Companies Recognized for Employee Sentiment and Satisfaction

SAN JOSE, Calif. – May 31, 2023 – Certinia, the platform for services businesses, today announced that it was ranked #2 in Newsweek’s annual rankings for the Top 100 Global Most Loved Workplaces® list. The 2023 Global Top 100 Most Loved Workplaces® is the newest list in the Most Loved Workplace® collaboration with the Best Practice Institute (BPI), a leadership development and benchmark research company.

The results were determined after surveying more than 2 million employees from businesses with workforces varying in size from 30 to more than 10,000. The list recognizes companies that put respect, caring, and appreciation for their employees at the center of their business model and, in doing so, have earned the loyalty and respect of the people who work for them.  

“It is truly an honor to be recognized among the elite list of companies where employees are the happiest and most satisfied at work,” said Heather Gille, Chief People Officer at Certinia. “What excites us the most is that our employees’ own voices were directly responsible for this achievement, as they shared their satisfaction and sentiment regarding the level of respect, collaboration, support, and sense of belonging they experience at Certinia. We are deeply committed to cultivating a workplace culture that reflects our core values, fuels our collective ambition, and serves as the cornerstone of our success. This recognition validates the dedication of our employees and reinforces Certinia as a truly beloved workplace.”

How positive workers feel about their future at the company, career achievement, how much employer values align with employee values, respect at all levels, and the level of collaboration at the firm were the five critical areas measured to gauge employee sentiment. In addition, areas such as inclusion, diversity, equity and belonging, career development, and company leadership were identified and analyzed in relation to the five critical areas measured.

“While workplace dynamics continue to evolve, the power of a positive culture remains constant,” says Nancy Cooper, Global Editor in Chief of Newsweek. “The companies featured on the 2023 Global Most Loved Workplaces® list embody this transformative spirit, proving that when companies prioritize their people, success naturally follows.”

“Since our initial publication of the Most Loved Workplaces® List in 2021, the workplace landscape has undergone a significant transformation, including shifts like Return to Office, Hybrid Work, The Great Resignation, Quiet Quitting, and Layoffs, among others,” says Most Loved Workplace® Founder and CEO Louis Carter. “Throughout these changes, the crucial element consistently tied to the success of a Most Loved Workplace® culture, which attracts and motivates exceptional talent, is cultivating positive and more meaningful connections between companies and employees. This year’s featured companies on the Most Loved Workplace® list exemplify this principle, even globally.”

Methodology

To identify the top 100 companies for the Newsweek ranking, companies were evaluated and scored as follows: 35 percent of the initial score was based on responses to BPI’s proprietary Love of Workplace survey. Another 25 percent was derived from analysis of external public ratings from sites such as Comparably, Careerbliss, Glassdoor, Indeed and Google. The final 40 percent came from direct interviews with and written responses from company officials. Newsweek then conducted additional research into every company on the list, as well as the top runners-up, to determine the final list of 100 companies and their rankings.
