  • (1888PressRelease) April 17, 2018 - The ranking considered more than 43,000 employee surveys from companies across the San Francisco Bay region, evaluating more than 50 elements of team members’ experience on the job. RiseSmart took the number 19 spot on the list, adding to the company’s ranking of #15 Best Small and Medium Workplaces in the U.S. by Great Place to Work and FORTUNE last quarter.

    “In the Bay Area, many companies find it difficult to create a workplace where employees feel valued, while balancing the intense pressure for results and innovation,” said RiseSmart President and General Manager, Dan Davenport. “At RiseSmart, having a strong values-based and purpose-driven culture plays an important role in how we navigate this challenge. We know that having a great work environment is critical to our long-term success and we want our employees to be ‘all in’ all the time. I’m proud that we are on the right track and that our employees feel appreciated and connected.”

    “As a Bay Area company, Great Place to Work is proud to have these Best Workplaces as our friends and neighbors,” said Michael Bush, CEO of Great Place to Work. “Organizations like RiseSmart set the bar for making the Bay Area a global hub for diversity and innovation.”

    RiseSmart’s anonymous employee satisfaction survey results were exceptional, showing that 99% of employees believe management exhibits justice and fairness when making decisions for the workplace, a key factor to creating a successful business in a fast-paced and competitive market like the Bay Area. In addition, 98% believe management shows appreciation for good work and extra effort, and 98% believe they are treated as an equally valued member of the RiseSmart team, regardless of their position. These results show the benefits of having an engaged workforce, which has led RiseSmart to achieve an employee retention rate of almost 90%.
